Tuesday Is CALL IN Day on AGAINST THE WAR in IRAQ

[otohara]

I think DUer's should get behind this - the least we could do is make a phone call or two. Forward this information to your friends, flood those lines in DC.

On Tuesday, December 6, Congress will reconvene in Washington, D.C. – and United for Peace and Justice, in conjunction with Win Without War, is calling for a massive national grassroots call-in day against the war.

We have an extraordinary window of opportunity to press our position. The Bush Administration is on the political defensive as never before – witness Bush's very weak speech today – and every day calls for immediate withdrawal from Iraq are becoming more widespread

We need to flood every single Congressional office with phone calls, faxes and email messages urging an immediate end to the war! To make this day as successful as possible, we're asking you, our member groups, to do the following:

1. Send a note to your members today letting them know about the planned call-in day next Tuesday. Feel free to forward this message.
2. Download the leaflet from our website promoting the call-in day, and distribute it widely between now and Tuesday.
3. Forward our email alert about the call-in day to your email lists. We will send out an alert very early on Tuesday morning.
4. Plan to send a press release to your local media outlets on Monday, December 5, regarding the call-in day. (A sample release will be sent to you before then.) It is important that the media know about our grassroots efforts.
5. Organize a phone bank for Monday, December 5, to remind your members to call their Representatives and Senators the next day.

2. so what? they are likely to have office personnel in.

just get your phone call in...ask to be switched to your senator or representative and then let whoever is answering the call know your message.

THEY NEED TO HEAR FROM YOU STARTING TOMORROW!

Drumbeat to PEACE!

3. I trust that's a metaphorical "you"

I'm a furriner, remember?

4. I forgot you were. however,....it is a plural YOU to anyone

who cares enough to get the call in and register their protest.

I've been emailing my state legislators and newspaper editors....looking for more ways to get involved.
