Step it up

April 14 is the Step It Up nationwide day of action on global
warming. There are 1367 actions planned in all 50 states and there will
be lots of people at these events who will be receptive to the idea of
impeachment.

Tampa and Tampa Bay Area Folks: I guarantee there are a HALF DOZEN of these events within your local area. I just checked.

If you'd like to spread the word, I encourage you to find
a Step It Up event near you, print up a bunch of A28 flyers, and go hand them out there tomorrow. You can find all the events at http://stepitup2007.org/.

I'm attaching a PDF (see below*****) which you can use to print out A28 palm cards. What I find works well was to copy a printout onto colored paper ("Cosmic
Orange" 25 lb. stock looked great). Each sheet has four palm cards on it, so
they will need to be cut. Any copy shop can do this for you, and producing
them costs around $15-20 per 1,000 flyers. We are working on a full-page
customizable PDF flyer with lots more info, but it's not quite ready
yet.

*****The ONLY thing the flyer says is IMPEACH SPELL IT OUT
April 28, 2007 http://a28.0rg It's very easy to duplicate. Unfortunately I can't upload the PDF to blogger and am out of time.

We also need to do lots of outreach using e-mail and the Internet. I've
pasted below an announcement about A28 which you can use to spread the
word.
E-mail it to your friends! Post it on your blog! Send it to the
webmasters
of your favorite websites! If there's an A28 event going on near you

(check
the A28.org homepage for the most up-to-date list), you'll probably
want to highlight that.

Let's make sure that everybody who *should* know about A28 *does* know
about
A28.
Thank you!

Impeachment Summer Begins This Spring!

George Bush and Dick Cheney have lied the nation into a war of
aggression,are spying in open violation of the law, and have sanctioned the use of
torture. These are high crimes and misdemeanors and demand
accountability.
Since Congress doesn't seem to get it, on April 28 tens of thousands of
Americans will spell it out for them.

From giant "human murals" to skywriting over the New Orleans Jazzfest
to guerrilla light shows to banner drops inside the California Democratic
Convention, people will literally spell out the word "IMPEACH!" in all
sorts of creative ways. Please help us kick off Impeachment Summer by joining
an action or starting one of your own!

The A28 campaign has been launched by dozens of groups, including the
Green Party, Progressive Democrats of America, Code Pink, the National
Lawyers Guild, Gold Star Families for Peace, and more. Actions are being
organized nationwide, and new ones are being added daily. Some highlights
include:

* Cleveland: Presidential candidate Rep. Dennis Kucinich will speak at
an impeachment concert and party.

* Miami: A massive rally for impeaching Bush, who is delivering the
commencement address at Miami Dade College that day.

* San Francisco: 2,000 people will form a "human mural" at Ocean Beach
to spell out "IMPEACH!" with their bodies, followed by a march to Nancy
Pelosi's house for an impeachment rally.

* San Diego: Introduction of an impeachment resolution at the
California Democratic Convention. Additional protests both inside and outside the
convention. A human mural on the beach.

* New York: A human mural at Coney Island. An Impeachment Festival in
Central Park. A former paratrooper will fly a banner saying "IMPEACH!"
around the city. Guerrilla art actions in undisclosed locations
involving lasers and giant projectors.

* Washington, D.C.: A human mural impeachment potluck picnic at the
foot of the Washington monument.

* Boston: A rally at Faneuil Hall with a town crier reading out
articles of impeachment.
