Everything You Wanted to Know About March 20 and How You Can Get Involved

Dear VoteNoWar Member,

Thousands of people are involved in building the March 20, 2004 global day of action. In communities all over the country, people are taking the message to their neighbors, friends, family and coworkers. On March 20 the people of the United States will be in the streets to turn up the heat on the Bush Administration. Bush lied and tens of thousands of Iraqis died and are still dying. The administration relentlessly lied to the people -- and still does -- and every day another U.S. soldier is killed or wounded in Bush and Co's ongoing lawless war of aggression. We are telling Bush to Bring the Troops Home Now. People all over the world are coming out on March 20 to say, "End Colonial Occupation from Iraq to Palestine and Everywhere!"

This movement needs your involvement. If you have even one hour a week to help spread the word about the demonstrations you can help hand out flyers, and put up posters and stickers. Contact the Organizing Center nearest you for details about weekly meetings and joining outreach teams. - and if there isn't one near you yet, you can contact the national office to get more information.

Funds, as always, are urgently needed. Organizing work is carried out by dedicated volunteers in cities across the country. But there are enormous expenses associated with the mobilization. We have already printed 100,000 leaflets and there are still four weeks to go. We are making available leaflets, posters, stickers and organizing packets. Please help the mobilization by contributing a donation -- go to http://www.votenowar.org/donate.html  to use our secure server for a credit card donation, or for information to write a check.

Make your plans now to join the March 20 demonstrations. Talk to your friends and family and encourage them to come out to stand united with peace loving people across the world.
