The biomass industry is attempting to get an extension for federal "stimulus" taxpayer subsidies for polluting, industrial-scale biomass energy, that would otherwise expire December 31, 2011.

The Subcommittee on Energy, Natural Resources, and Infrastructure of the Senate Finance Committee is conducting a hearing in Congress in the coming week.

Please sign this petition to urge subcommittee members to vote NO on any further extensions of Section 1603 grants, due to expire this year.

Thank you for your help!
