Subject: Day of Action to Restore Law and Justice, June 26,

Hello Jon,

Would Vets for Peace or any of the groups you're active in like to co-sponsor a Forum here in Anchorage on June 26 from 7 to 9 p.m. at UAA, SSB 118?

Michael McLeod-Ball, the head of the Alaska ACLU, contacted Aks4P&J to ask if we would do something on the same day as the gathering in Washington, DC. There will be a delegation going from Alaska which will include Amberle Wright from MFSO.

The panel for the forum here so far includes Susan Wingrove, the chair of the Board of ACLU, and Karen Button. Gil Sanchez, formerly with KSKA, will be the moderator.

If you would like to suggest a speaker, please do.

The action in DC and elsewhere is to restore habeas corpus and due process, end torture and protect fundamental freedoms. If you need more info the website is www.juneaction.org or Michael McLeod Ball - mwm@AKCLU.org, the person in charge locally.

Please let me know if you'd like to co-sponsor this event. I saw Elaine Thomas at the Oceans Festival and she offered to help with graphics. We need everything in place by June 15 for the PSA's.

Thanks for your help - Ruth
