GOAL:    60 U.S. Senators must say “YES” to pass the RESTORE Act (S. 1400) to send 80% of the Clean Water Act fines back to the Gulf for restoration

TIMING:    We need the bill to come to a full Senate vote early in the 2012 session or it may lose our chance to bring this critical funding back to the Gulf Coast. It was favorably reported out of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works on a bipartisan vote on September 21.  We need your help NOW.
