Dear Legislative
Action Network Member:
Today,
Representative Phil Gingrey (R-GA) will be offering an amendment on the
floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to the reauthorization of the
America COMPETES Act that will create a green chemistry research program
at the National Science Foundation. This bipartisan amendment
establishes a new federal green chemistry program which will coordinate
and fund green chemistry research. Just link below to urge
your member of Congress to support this amendment.
This
amendment follows on the heels of legislation, the Green Chemistry
Research and Development Act, which has passed the House of
Representatives in the last three Congresses. It is critical to continue
to let Congress know of your support for green chemistry so members of
Congress will take time to support this important amendment--link
here.
Thank you,
Brad
