2.1 Million Member National Sierra Club Joining Community Action Fight to Save Home Weatherization

David Bradley, Executive Director, National Community Action Foundation announced today, "We are very pleased to learn the 2.1 million member national Sierra Club is joining our fight to save a viable Weatherization program. It is the first major environmental group to put the program's well-being on the to-do list for a vast grassroots network of activists. We will continue to work with other environmental organizations that might put W.A.P.'s funding crisis on their action agenda, too.

The Sierra Club goal is the same as NCAF's, a base funding of $300 million for W.A.P. Also, they are helping make the case that the W.A.P. budget is a barometer of the fairness of the Administration's energy policies; at present, the White House supports billions of dollars in tax incentives directed to families that can update their homes, windows and equipment, but less than the 2008 funding level for W.A.P."
