Even as the United States struggles with recession, unemployment and deficits, political forces continue to seek a wholesale transformation of the U.S. energy system that supports our economic vitality and living standards.

Energy is the Master Resource -- the vital fuel, the foundation for everything we do. Energy transforms constitutionally protected civil rights into rights we actually enjoy like jobs, homes, transportation, and healthcare. How do these efforts impact the lives of American families, particularly low-income and minority populations?

Join us for a powerful Webinar presentation by Paul Driessen exploring these important issues. During a 25-year career that included staff tenures with the United States Senate, Department of the Interior and an energy trade association, Driessen has spoken and written frequently on energy and environmental policy, global climate change, corporate social responsibility, and other topics. He is a critic of the environmental movement for its intolerant views, inflexible demands, and refusal to recognize our tremendous strides in protecting the environment, as well as its insensitivity to the needs of billions of people who lack the food, electricity, safe water, healthcare, and other basic necessities that we take for granted.

Log in today to RSVP and to view our latest State Factor report on this issue.

This event can be seen live from any computer with Internet access.

The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) is the nation's largest nonpartisan, individual membership organization of state legislators.
