To all CT COWs (Connecticut Opposes the War)

We've just received confirmation that the planned State Democratic Platform
for the 2006 elections has no mention of the War! 

77% of CT residents oppose the war and CT kids are dying there. What's the
Democratic Party going to do about it?

It's time for COW to mobilize. Please FORWARD this message to
ctopposeswar at yahoo.com to let us know you can come to one or both of these
events:

THIS Thursday, May 11, 7:00 PM  
State Democratic Party Platform Discussion:
179 Allyn Street, above Coach's bar, Hartford. 
This meeting is open. Let's be there to insist that the platform include a
call to end the war in Iraq! 

Friday, May 19, 5:30 - 6:30 PM
Kickoff for State Democratic Party Nominating Convention
Hundreds of anti-war party activists will be inside the convention urging
and organizing for anti-war candidates to be nominated, and for the Party to
adopt an anti-war plank in the platform.
US Labor Against the War and COW will be demonstrating outside to support
that fight.
People are needed both before and after this time slot, so if that hour
isn't perfect for you, or you have more time to offer, we'll be there from
about 5:00 PM to about 7:30 PM. But do your best to be there 5:30 to 6:30.

Please forward, and CALL YOUR FRIENDS to urge them to attend the convention
demonstration with you!  

Remember, emails notify; but it's PHONE CALLS and face-to-face conversations
that really ORGANIZE!

Please FORWARD this message to ctopposeswar at yahoo.com to let us know that we
can count on you for one or both of these events.

Thank you!
