Stop School Vouchers in D.C.
People for the American Way (PFAW) wants to deal a knockout blow to the Bush administration. The Republicans in Congress have advanced a school voucher proposal for D.C. public schools all the way to the Senate floor, but the good news is that the momentum is on our side. On Wednesday, Oct. 22, help mobilize PFAW activists in key states to flood fence-sitting Senators with a clear message: Vouchers don't work! We can't win without your help!
The phone bank is at 2000 M St. NW on the fifth floor; dinner will be provided free of charge. RSVP to Todd Plants at 202/467-2380. Bring a photo ID and tell the guard on duty that you're coming to PFAW on the fifth floor.
