Hold Candidates' Feet to the Fire!

October 11, 2012

Right now is the best time to ask questions of candidates, get them on the record to hold them accountable, and tell your friends before election day.

Here is one very important question you should ask any candidate for Congress!

  • How did you vote (or would you have voted) on the recent No More Solyndras bill in the House that ended federal loan guarantees for most renewable energy projects but would have continued tax payer support for dangerous, expensive nuclear power plants and dirty coal projects? 

During the next few weeks ask the candidates this and other important questions as they seek your vote. They will knock on your door.  You may attend house parties and candidate forums. Please use these opportunities to hold your legislators accountable.  You may communicate their answers on Facebook or Twitter.  You can also write a letter to the editor or be part of a group visiting your local paper’s editorial board or meet with the candidate her/himself. 

Write a Letter to the Editor today and hold your candidates' feet to the fire!

Check out our website for additional questions for the candidates or the press in the next few weeks, call us at 202-587-5242 for suggestions and advice.

Please remember: Send us the candidate’s answer at dmark@psr.org. We will use the information you collect as part of our educational and lobbying work in 2013.
