But, no, these fringe interests, supported with out-of-state political money, want to send a message to other environment officials nationally. That’s what’s really at play here. Force Gwen out of her duly elected office, and send the message to environmentally moderate officials nationwide: If you do not tow the line on oil, gas and coal, we have the money to remove you from office. Plain and simple.

Don’t give these opportunists an undeserved second bite at the apple. Decline to sign! And support the true, democratic American way.
