Baseball ActionThe No DC Taxes for Baseball Campaign has gotten a lot of media attention and has made elected officials nervous over the past few weeks. Check out the group's latest release, a statement that was signed by 90 economists.
People need to get active over the next few weeks to make a real difference. Here's how you can help.
* Attend the action planning meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 26, at 7 p.m., at Empower (1419 V St. NW; 202/234-9119). Come and learn how you can help by distributing flyers and posters, attending community forums where the mayor's folks will be present so that our voice can be heard, and attending rallies for the campaign.
* Rally before a 10 a.m. DC City Council hearing on baseball on Thursday, Oct. 28, at 9:30 a.m., in front of the Wilson Building (1350 Pennsylvania Ave. NW).
* Go to www.nodctaxesforbaseball.org and make a contribution. The more resources the group has, the more it can do.
