World Can't Wait Emergency Protest

[demnan]

Dear Members and Friends of the DC Chapter of World Can't Wait,


Please join us in a protest on the day Bush vetoes the Iraq Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Bill, and tell Bush it is time to end this war! We will converge on Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House at 5:00 pm. The veto will probably occur on Tuesday May 1st or Wednesday May 2nd. Check the news and your e-mail to find out which day. Please bring pots and pans or other noise-makers and signs asking motorists to honk to end the war now!


World Can't Wait chapters nationwide are protesting this veto. It shows Bush's total unwillingness to entertain any date to stop the war in Iraq. Although the bill continues to fund the war rather than ending the occupation and bringing our troops home, Bush is vetoing the bill because of the nonbinding timeline for withdrawal of combat troops. The veto represents Bush's refusal to acknowledge the November 2006 mandate from the people to end the war. Please make every effort to be there, as it is very important that we send a strong message that this is unacceptable to the American people. Get word out to everyone you know!


Please contact us by phone or e-mail to co-sponsor and help organize this protest.
