We have met every challenge the leadership posed, getting 62 hard votes, getting 6 republicans, including a press release from Senator Sam Brownback (R-KS) stating he would offer the RES as an amendment, and uniting labor, the environmental community, some utilities, and the renewables sector. Still there has been no movement. So, we are now requesting the ability to offer the RES as an amendment to whatever bill finally comes to the floor. Please keep up the calls to your Senators and tell them jobs are at stake if an RES is not passed.

I will be on CNBC tomorrow morning with Governor Parkinson of Kansas talking about the great promise for wind. This battle is not over – it is just beginning and we are getting the attention of policymakers.
