Julia Roberts made a public statement yesterday while at Mattell Children’s Hospital in Los Angeles in support of California’s Prop 87. Her husband Danny Moder was there to support her. Says Julia, “We’re all victims of this state’s tragically poor air quality. California has the worst air pollution in the nation.” TMZ reported the story, along with a video, that is not currently working and Perez Hilton has got some pics.
Julia Roberts is also the spokesperson for biodiesel company Earth BioFuels, Inc. – the same company where Willie Nelson and Morgan Freeman sit on the Board of Directors.
Proposition 87 is a proposal to tax oil producers in California, prohibiting them to pass the tax on to consumers. The money raised will fund alternative energy research, production incentives, and education, among other things.
Please educate yourself on your local issues and don’t forget to vote in the upcoming November elections.
