The Baltimore / Columbia Maryland LPSGs remind our local
chapter members & friends of our activity on Thursday June 26th.
On that day, we urge as many as possible to call, fax, and email
the White House, to remind President Clinton that it is the 22nd
anniversary of the Oglala tragedy.
phone: 202-456-1111 (hit '0' to avoid the survey)
fax: 202-456-2461
email: president@whitehouse.gov
SUGGESTIONS:
Don't just be a nameless voice -- tell the White House comment
line operator your name, and where you live (city & state). If you
are a registered voter, mention that too.
Don't be rude (the operators answer phones, not make policy
decisions), but be "courteously firm".
Because President Clinton has recently convened a special task
force on race relations & civl rights, and is currently seeking
ideas for actions and initiatives he can take in this area, you
might use this as a "tie-in", i.e., suggest that if he's serious about
healing the historical wounds among Native Americans, the first
step is to approve Peltier's Clemency application!
Here's his chance to do more than just apologize for an injustice
-- he can actually do something beyond "pretty words" to help
heal the wounds!
THUSRDAY JUNE 26th -- DON'T LET CLINTON FORGET.
*** in memory of Joe Stuntz ***
