[PAA-Discuss] March for Economic Justice, Sat. noon, Houston city hall

[Bill Crosier]

A final reminder of an important event for social justice (details 
below), and a great networking opportunity for us:

I hope to see many of you at this event Saturday, wearing a t-shirt 
for your favorite presidential candidate, issue, or organization.

I plan to be there, armed with a tote bag full of flyers for our 
April 9 impeachment rally.  If you can help pass out flyers to 
everyone, find me or Don Cook or someone else passing out flyers and 
grab a handful or two.  (We also need help passing out flyers for the 
Apr. 9 impeach event at the Westheimer street festival Sat. 
afternoon, where thousands of people will be).

Publicity has not been very great for the march/rally tomorrow and 
there was some confusion about the time, but it starts at Hermann 
Square (in front of Houston city hall) around noon Saturday, then a 
little later there's a march from there for a few blocks and then 
back to city hall.

(Other worthwhile events are listed there, too.)

Houston Coalition of Working People and the Poor has called this 
major march and rally to advance its 2007 agenda: raising the federal 
minimum wage, healthcare for all, and adequate funding of human needs 
programs, especially the critical entitlement programs that are up 
for re-authorization this year-Food Stamps and State Children's 
Health Insurance Program (SCHIP).

It's important that middle-class Anglo activists stand with people of 
color for the issues that matter most in their lives. Plus, the 
struggle for new budget priorities connects peace and economic 
justice in the most meaningful way.

Gather at noon in Hermann Square (in front of Houston City Hall). The 
short march kicks off at 1 p.m., then the rally begins at 1:45 on the 
City Hall steps.
