The short explanation of this alert was:

Let's win the fight for clean air by strengthening Virginia's Clean Air Interstate Rule proposal to clean up old, under-controlled power plants across the Commonwealth.  

Tell the Virginia Air Board to fight for clean air, to stand up for our most vulnerable populations affected by air pollution, infants and children, the elderly and those living with lung or heart disease by adding provisions to strengthen the new rule.  Strengthening measures include ending the trade of pollution credits in areas of the state that fail to meet federal air standards, making industry clean up sooner, and reducing the state emissions cap.  Reducing the emissions cap can be achieved by establishing a public health account where 5% of the emissions are "set aside" for the purpose of improving air quality and public health.
