Dear friends,
The next in a series of strategy meetings to plan for the October 19-21 demonstrations against the IMF/World Bank annual meetings in Washington DC is this coming Saturday! Excitement has been growing about these demonstrations, with regular meetings, national conference calls, and extensive strategizing and outreach at the US Social Forum. With all of our inolvement, we might just be on to something big!

When: SATURDAY JULY 7 from 2 PM to 4 PM.
Where: 50 Years is Enough office, 3628 12th St. NE, near Brookland metro.

Join Until We're Home (formerly Committee to Save Franklin Shelter) to demand air conditioning in DC shelters.

Residents of Franklin Shelter (the last downtown men's shelter in DC) and other shelters will be rallying outside the City Council Building, 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue NW (near the Federal Triangle orange/blue lines station) at 9 am on Monday July 23rd.

Please join them in this crucial effort that could make the difference
between life and death for DC's 16,000 homeless residents.
