—Securing
America's Future Energy (SAFE) “There
are no short-term solutions to our energy security vulnerabilities, but
there
are both
medium and long-term ones,” SAFE President and CEO Robbie Diamond
said. “We
need to pursue a comprehensive strategy to reduce our dependence on
oil, including reductions in demand and the development and deployment
of alternatives.
We also have vast reservoirs of oil and natural gas off of our coasts
that are currently off-limits to development. Opening those resources
in an environmentally
responsible way can help us reduce our imports, lower our trade deficit,
and prevent future occurrences of the low-dollar/high oil price cycle. Increasing domestic supply is not a long-term answer to our energy
security problems,
but can help protect our economy and our national security over the medium-term.”
www.CommitteeOnThePresentDanger.org —The Committee On The Present Danger (CPD) includes over 100 former White House officials, Ambassadors,
Cabinet Secretaries, academics, writers, and other foreign policy
experts. Its Co-Chairmen are the Honorable George Shultz, Secretary
of State under President Reagan, and R. James Woolsey, Director of
the CIA under President Clinton. Senators Joe Lieberman and Jon Kyl
serve as Honorary Co-Chairs.
“It is essential to put the war in the context of our oil
dependence and connect the dots between our excessive oil demand and
the national
security challenges facing our society. We help fund the spread of
radical Islam and the proliferation of terror every time we go to
a gas station and fill up the tanks of our cars. Therefore, a shift
from oil is the best weapon against America's enemies, who derive
their power from oil and use it to fuel terror and spread hatred toward
our nation.” —Anne

Set America Free coalition brings together prominent individuals and non-profit
organizations concerned about the security
and economic
implications of America’s growing dependence on foreign oil—TWO
THIRDS OF U.S. OIL CONSUMPTION IS DUE TO THE TRANSPORTATION SECTOR—The
coalition
believes that by spearheading a global effort to transition the transportation
sector to next-generation fuels and vehicles that can
utilize them, the United States can deny its adversaries the wherewithal
they use to harm us. Doing so will also protect our quality of life
and economy against the effects of cuts in foreign energy supplies
and rising costs of oil.

Energy Security is a web-based non-profit initiative to educate individuals,
businesses, and policy makers about America's liquid fuels crisis and the
tremendous challenges and opportunities ahead. Our mission is to inspire you
to take action, and to provide you with tools to do so. American Energy Security
is an initiative of the Southern States Energy Board (www.SSEB.org).

—America will not be secure unless its energy supplies
are secure... The nation's abundant and affordable
coal reserves—matched with proven gasification and liquefaction technology—can
provide an invaluable hedge against our increasing dependence on foreign
energy supplies as well as a potentially significant source of transportation
fuel for a growing economy, all while meeting our need for environmental
protections.

—Partnership for a Secure America (PSA)
“America’s overdependence on foreign oil is costing American
lives, bankrolling many of our worst enemies...
The time has come for dramatic bipartisan action to address
our nation’s Achilles heel — our dangerous dependency
on oil.” PSA
believes that the United States is being ill-served by the growing
partisan divide surrounding national
security and foreign policy.... growing partisan bitterness dangerously
interferes with substantive discussion of our national security and
foreign policy. The Partnership for a Secure America is a not-for-profit
organization
created to address this growing problem and help foster bipartisan,
consensus driven, national solutions to the major national security
and foreign policy
challenges facing our country. |
