The head of the American Petroleum Institute promised \u2018huge electoral consequences\u2019 if Obama denies the permits; meanwhile, the fossil fuel harem on Capitol Hill is planning to introduce legislation that would take away the president\u2019s right to make the decision and simply grant the permit themselves.&nbsp;So: we need to make a stand. A stand against the big money that\u2019s polluted this process: remember, the 234 Congresspeople who voted to expedite Keystone had taken $42 million in dirty energy money. (This week the Maplight Foundation laid it out in even more graphic detail\u2014you can see the details&nbsp;here.)We need to be outraged\u2014if this is what business as usual looks like, then business as usual isn\u2019t acceptable and has to stop before the planet cooks.&nbsp;No one would countenance this kind of corruption at a high school gymnastics meet\u2014it\u2019s simply not right to take money from a company and then vote on its interests.&nbsp;Here\u2019s the plan: Instead of circling the White House, this time we\u2019re going to show up at Congress. And we\u2019re going to do it in\u2026referee\u2019s uniforms.On January 24, the day they return to business, we\u2019ll be there at 3 in the afternoon, ready to blow the whistle on their corruption. The demonstration will start on Capitol hill, and then we will head to the headquarters of the American Petroleum Institute, the oil industry's #1 lobby. We\u2019re going to call penalties\u2014forget facemasking, this is vote-buying. Forget unsportsmanlike conduct\u2014this is undemocratic conduct.Click here to sign up to join the action, and we'll be in touch very soon with more details.This time we plan to get up close and personal with some of the worst folks on Capitol Hill. Not only will we be sending an unavoidable message (I don't think a gaggle of refs is a common sight in DC), we also hope to make a media stir that will be a counterbalance to the flood of ads and propaganda unleashed by the industry over the past two weeks.Warning: it won\u2019t work right away. These guys have been having their way for so long that it won\u2019t dawn on them quickly that the game is us. We\u2019ll have to fight them all spring long to prevent Keystone, and to take away the billions in subsidies that they present each year to the oil industry (with our money). But if we\u2019re going to take back our country we\u2019ve got to start somewhere, and January 24 is the day.I know it\u2019s absurdly short notice. I know it\u2019s a workday. I know it\u2019s winter. And I know that if it\u2019s humanly possible you\u2019ll do what you can to get there.
