CLICK TO READ: Thousands in Mass. to get cheaper oil - The Boston Globe

Where there is a will, there is a way. And there is a will to ease the price of oil this winter for the poor in Massachusetts:

"A subsidiary of the Venezuelan national oil company will ship 12 million gallons of discounted home-heating oil to local charities and 45,000 low-income families in Massachusetts next month under a deal arranged by US Representative William D. Delahunt, a local nonprofit energy corporation, and Venezuela's president, White House critic Hugo Chávez."

Three cheers for Rep. Delahunt, Hugo Chavez, and Joseph P. Kennedy II.

Read the whole story here. Then ask your representatives what they are doing to ease the burden of higher heating prices on the disadvantaged in YOUR state?
