Received this e-mail today from CREDO Action regarding U.S. Senate candidate Thom Tillis (R. NC):
North Carolina House Speaker Thom Tillis just lifted North Carolina’s moratorium on fracking by pushing through the worst pro-fracking bill ever passed by a state legislature.
Tillis is a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, hoping to bring this extreme pro-fracking agenda to Washington, and take one of the 6 seats from Democrats that Republicans need to seize control of the Senate.
We can’t let that happen. Chip in $10.00 to defeat Thom Tillis and keep his pro-fracking Tea Party Republican agenda out of the Senate.

The fracking bill, which is expected to be signed by North Carolina’s governor and become law, is astounding. It lifts the state's moratorium on fracking, blocks local governments from protecting themselves against fracking, and makes it a crime to disclose the toxic chemicals used in fracking.
If Tillis and five other Republicans succeed in defeating their Democratic opponents, we will lose the firewall in the Senate that has kept Tillis’ brand of Tea Party Republican craziness confined to the House of Representatives. In the last four years, House Tea Party Republicans have made repeated attempts to approve the Keystone XL pipeline, voted over 100 times to undermine the Clean Air Act and attempted nearly 200 times to gut the EPA.
But if Republicans take over the Senate, that will be just the beginning -- and there will be nothing to stop every bill they pass from landing on President Obama’s desk.
Chip in $10.00 to defeat Thom Tillis and keep the Senate out of the hands of pro-fracking, climate denying Tea Party Republicans.

Thanks for fighting fracking.
