Reaching Out and Growing the Movement Against Torture
Subcommittee to Meet Again, November 7
Like many grassroots groups, we strive to diversify and broaden our movement.
Reliable allies among elected officials: State Reps. Paul Luebke, Earl Jones, Pricey Harrison and Linda Coleman; state Senator Ellie Kinnaird; and Congressmen David Price and Mel Watt often remind us of the need to build and broaden support for our campaign.
During the next few months, we're planning to re-double our efforts in this area. The first of three planning meetings to discuss this initiative was held September 21.
The next gathering is scheduled beginning at 6 p.m., Friday, November 7 at the home of a coaltion member.
If you want to be involved in this effort and to get address and directions to the meeting, please alert us.
