This bill has 20 co-sponsors, and is being pushed through by the House Natural Rescources Committee. It is better to be safe than sorry on a matter with these sorts of implications. It will be much easier to pass without vast objections from member's constituency.
This is a list of all co-sponsors of HR 669. Check to see if your representitive is on the list. Either way contact your congressman and urge them to vote no on this bill. I work on the hill and know this works. Everyone needs to call, email, write etc...they will listen if we mobilize.
Fashfarm is right, also contact the committee. The bill can die in committee if they let it.
Please be sure to be polite and sound professional when contacting. "Crazies" do not get the time of day on the hill.

It ain't just the democrates, there are just as many republicans on the committee. Everyone needs to e-mail their congressman. Ken

You are right. All members should contact their representitive, regardless of party affiliation. However all co-sponsors are Democrats. 5 of which are from California, where many of our members are from. These members have already pledged their support for this bill.
