Political Support
Posted on July 21, 2008 in by mattNo Comments »
We have many people to thank and remind that our fight is not over.  The following is a listing of the elected officials the Political Team is requesting you contact.  If you have not called yet, please call and send follow-up emails (in the event we should have to testify before the PUC, the emails would serve as hard copies of our voiced objections).  For your convenience, a template letter that you can modify is available in
 
or
 
Please contact these Politicians who have supported us previously!
PA REPRESENTATORS:

     Craig Dally has strongly supported us by writing a letter to David Schleicher, PPL’s Vice President of Transmission, formally opposing Route C.  He has been the most vocal by far and our biggest supporter.

Julie Harhart
     Julie Harhart also wrote a letter to David Schleicher of PPL opposing the proposed Route C. Since Julie could not attend, she also had a representative at the Community Center on June 26, 2008.
