Local News and Announcements... Don't miss anything...please scroll downLobbying Day for Peace, June 17, 2003Please join other citizens of conscience Tuesday, 17 June, from 12 Noon- 1:00 p.m., in a lobbying day for peace, visiting the office of Rep. Kenny Hulshof, 33 E. Broadway (in the Remax Realty building). Meet in the building's entryway at 11:45 a.m. to briefly discuss our planned visit with his staff people. Activists at the recent Missouri Peace Coalition meeting agreed that MPC would sponsor visits on 17 June, to the Missouri offices of our state's Congresspeople, expressing: our opposition to the ongoing U.S. occupation of Iraq, our revulsion with the war waged there and our deep hope that the United States not attack Iran, Syria or any other nation. The day would coincide with a lobbying campaign by the Education for Peace in Iraq Center at the U.S. Capitol (which would focus exclusively on Iraq). There are a lot of issues to bring up with our congresspeople (i.e.- where are the WMD's?; Paul Wolfowitz's acknowledgement the invasion was (as we suspected) really about oil and enabling a relocation of U.S. military forces out of Saudi Arabia; how long will the U.S. occupation of Iraq last?; more war is morally unacceptable, etc.)-- issues that still offer significant media hooks. The time seems ripe for such activism. I've also included below a posting from Tom Sager of Rolla, speaking of EPIC's planned lobbying days (June 16-17). Rep. Hulshof is a Republican who at least publicly had reservations about the invasion (perhaps just to pacify his Columbia constituents), but nonetheless he supported the war upon Iraq. If you can attend (or even if you can't but have some questions/concerns you would like to be addressed/answered by Hulshof's staff) please contact me. We are hoping for many people to participate in this citizen action. Email this:
