Call now to avoid disappointment!

Julia Gillard has called an election before announcing her climate policy, but the Australian Financial Review (AFR) is reporting an extraordinary outcome from last week's Cabinet meeting: a commitment to set an interim carbon price and reduce carbon emissions over the next two years.
That would be a historic victory, if it were true. Although 'ministerial sources' are quoted, this hasn't been confirmed or announced. This report has all the hallmarks of a trial balloon--a leak politicians use to gauge the public reaction before committing to a position.
So as Cabinet meets again today, let's give them a very big reaction--of overwhelming support. They say you catch more flies with honey, so let's pour it on! Can you call Nicola Roxon, a key member of Cabinet, and express your support for a climate plan that includes charging big polluters for their carbon pollution?
The number is (02) 6277-7220
So often we contact our politicians to criticise or complain. Imagine how it will feel when Nicola Roxon or her staff picks up the phone and is met with your support for their possible policy announcement of putting a price on carbon within the next term of office.
They won't want to disappoint you. Your phone call can be really simple. All we're asking you to do is call Nicola Roxon's office to tell them how happy you are about the story in the AFR and then ask them to confirm if it's true. Tell them about the positive difference it's made to your opinion of the Government.
Can you can contact Nicola Roxon's office? The number is (02) 6277-7220
Now is the most powerful time to influence the Labor Party's decision to deliver a robust policy to reduce our rising carbon pollution. The election has been called and Cabinet is meeting today. Can you help us get a price on carbon pollution by calling Nicola Roxon's office and telling her there are votes in strong climate action?
