6:30 P.M. Interested groups and individuals will participate in a

Truth Action Street Event

(outside the Wortham Theater, 501 Texas Ave. Downtown)

Our purpose is to honor the fallen NYC Fire Fighters of 9/11/01, and their
families,

to draw attention to the health concerns of the first responders now
suffering from toxic poisoning with the EPA and NYC Health Dept.'s "all
clear", and other issues regarding the need for an honest and open
investigation of all events relating to 9/11/01.

This event corresponds with the Annual Fire Fighters Foundation of Houston
Fundraiser
