Congress is considering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to restore our Gulf Coast. The RESTORE Act would dedicate billions of dollars in penalties paid by BP and other companies responsible for last year's oil disaster to a massive effort to restore the Gulf. BP's damage was done in the Gulf, so BP's fines should be used for Gulf restoration. The Gulf Coast supports migratory birds from all across America, and its natural resources produce support millions of jobs throughout the nation. The U.S. Senate needs to know that this issue matters to ALL Americans.
