Rally for Clean Energy Aug. 19 in Cheyenne

A Rally for Clean Energy, sponsored by moveon.org, will take place on the corner of 17th St. and Central Ave. in downtown Cheyenne at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 19. Meet at 4:45 to get instructions on proper demonstrating etiquette. Helpful hints: Keep your cool, no cat calls or bird flipping. Also, bring your own sign promoting conservation and clean energy over John McCain's plan to make Big Oil richer than ever.

Here's some background info from moveon.org on Rally for Clean Energy:

On August 19, we're releasing reports around the country with new state-by-state data detailing what billions we give Big Oil in tax breaks could buy in the way of clean energy projects and job creation. We'll tell John McCain and the Republicans: don't use our tax-dollars for Big Oil giveaways -- invest in a clean energy future instead.
