WA State resolution to impeach Bush; SJM 8016

[upi402]

Impeachment Is Underway in Washington State

State Senator Eric Oemig's resolution calling on the Washington State
Legislature to petition the U.S. House has a number (SJM 8016) and a
hearing has been scheduled for March 1.

On February 20, 850 people showed up for an impeachment forum in
Olympia with authors David Lindorff, Ray McGovern and Elizabeth de la Vega.
Senator Oemig spoke about his resolution, and we were honored by the
presence of Rachel Corrie's parents, Lt. Ehren Watada and James Yee. It
was an amazing event, by all accounts. You won't want to miss the next
one!

RALLY AND HEARING SCHEDULED:
A Senate Committee hearing has been scheduled for March 1st, 3:30 p.m.,
in hearing room 2 of the Cherberg Bldg. There will be a peaceful rally
for impeachment and investigations on the Capitol steps at 1:00 p.m.
Please come to the rally and the hearing to support Senator Oemig's
resolution. Please TAKE CHARGE and charter a bus to Olympia with your
friends and classmates! Take the opportunity to visit with your
representatives personally during the day.

THIS IS OUR CHANCE TO SCORE A SIGNIFICANT VICTORY FOR DEMOCRACY IN
WASHINGTON STATE!

Please contact your WA State Senators to ask them to support SJM 8016.
It is imperative that you continue to write to your Representatives to
ask for a sponsor for a companion bill in the WA State House. Find

(Sorry for the double post, but what is going on with this? Anyone involved? I wish I could get out for this!)

1. Kick and Rec!

Even if you aren't a WA resident, call the co-sponsors. Thank them. Ask if you can make a contribution to next campaign. Show their colleagues that standing up for the nation carries with more than our thanks.
