Script of "Crippling" (TV)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: On the issue of gas prices...

For years, Mark Udall voted against opening American oil reserves for exploration, even as gas skyrocketed.

(Text on screen: Vote: #132, 2005, #164 & 170, 2006, #574, 2007)

Now, Udall has flipped, and claims he supports drilling. But would his plan really help?

(Text on screen: Denver Post, 8/14/08)

Udall's plan includes crippling regulations on offshore drilling, so we still couldn't tap huge reserves.

And Udall's plan would raise taxes that consumers could pay.

(Grand Junction Daily Sentinel, 8/15/08)

Call Udall. Tell him to support real energy solutions. Pass HR 6108.
