Although we will not see the comprehensive energy and climate change bill that all of us associated with Operation Free were hoping for from this session of Congress, rest assured our efforts were not for naught.  The enthusiasm I witnessed this past week as we walked the halls of Congress expounding on our message and the attendance and participation at the White House sponsored event speaks volumes of the lasting commitment of the Operation Free team.  Once the Operation Free leadership team reassesses our strategy and way ahead post Nov elections, I know we will be back in full force communicating our message of national security, prosperity and energy independence to all levels of government as well as to more of the very diverse audiences we met and discussed the perils of climate change and energy dependence with this past year.  I would encourage each of you continue to fight the good fight and share of very important message with any and all audiences.  And I’m sure the Operation Free leadership team would welcome your thoughts on the strategy we should pursue in the future.

All of us associated with Operation Free are on the right side of this issue.  Our men and women who so proudly serve deserve a comprehensive energy bill as well as every citizen of our great country.  This is not a left or right or center issue nor a Republican, Democratic or Independent cause..energy independence is a cause for all Americans and we in Operation Free have the means to keep the cause on track.  It’s an honor to be on this team and I look forward to continuing our worthy work.
