You are welcome to send your picture/petition. 2. Legal representation now available. 3. Schedule of events and our Letters. 1. You are welcome to attend OR send your picture/petition. ----------------------------- Please consider joining us. If you can't, send us a picture of you and your children that we can leave with our Federal Representatives. We have one member of the House of Representatives, and two U.S. Senators, one of those is the new Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton -- our attempts to focus her attention on this issue will help gain great public attention. If you can help in any other way, please let us know! Send photos to: A Kid's Right c/o Software Workshop Inc. 55 E. Genesee Street Baldwinsvlle, NY 13027 We recommend you make a copy of a picture and on the back, hand write a brief message asking for protection of your rights and expressing your desire to see your children. Include your full name and address so they can respond. We need the pictures by Saturday, so please mail today! You are also welcome to send a FAX letter to us that we can hand deliver. Our fax number is: 315-635-3243 2. Legal representation now available. ------------------------------- See below for details, but part of the events for Monday is a planned "walk" outside the offices of Representative James Walsh. So far he has refused to even acknowledge the "rights of parents" as a national issue deserving Constitutional protection. For those walking, with the possible risk of arrest, we are happy to say that two attorneys have volunteered to help during any initial arraignment. We all express our great thanks! 1. Mr. Charles Keller - involved in State practice. He represented John Murtari during his previous "walks" in the Federal Building and his strong voice was key in getting all charges dismissed and convincing state and federal officials that such walks should be allowed to proceed. (cakeller@syr.edu) 2. Mr. James Stern - involved in Federal practice. Associated with the local ACLU with experience in Civil Rights work. http://www.jsternesq.com/ 3. Schedule of events and our Letters. ----------------------------- There will be a LOT happening in the next week. Please check the following page for full details, http://www.AKidsRight.Org/action_syr It includes letters we have written to our Federal Representatives and also to building management. Again, we are trying to keep a positive and courteous attitude at all times. These are good people that we are dealing with (certainly no worse than any of us are!). They may have trouble understanding our situations and goals. We will help them understand, NOT by insults, but by demonstrating OUR willingness to sacrifice for the sake of our children. http://www.AKidsRight.Org/civil_back.htm ================================================================== To unsubscribe from this list at anytime, send email to Majordomo@kids-right.org with the following 1 line in the BODY of the message (Subject is ignored). unsubscribe members
