Permits Secured For March 17 March On The Pentagon
Via email:

Permits secured for the March on the Pentagon!
Nearly 100 transportation centers bringing people
to Washington, D.C. on Saturday, March 17.

*please circulate widely to friends, family and email lists*

Dear -,

Tens of thousands of people will unite on March 17 at the Pentagon against the war and to demand the Impeachment of George W. Bush and other high officials.

Permits have been secured for this historic demonstration which Ramsey Clark will help lead. March 17 is the 4th anniversary of the start of the criminal war in Iraq. 2007 is also the 40th anniversary of the 1967 March on the Pentagon.

It took five long months to secure the right of the people to march against the war and in support of impeachment. Many told us that a permit at the Pentagon would be impossible. But because of a protracted political and legal struggle we have won this major free speech victory. Bush may not want us there, but we will not be deterred. The whole world will be watching that day.

Impeachment supporters are getting on buses, trains and planes to come to Washington. This is a united effort between the impeachment movement and many anti-war and social justice organizations. In fact, there are hundreds of organizations that are working together to bring people to Washington. You can find out about a transportation center nearest you by going to MarchOnPentagon.org. There are now nearly 100 transportation centers coming from cities up and down the East Coast, New England, the Midwest and South.

Please make an urgently needed donation today. This is a massive undertaking and your help is needed right now. Each bus from New York City costs $1,500, each bus from Boston costs $2,500. And from Chicago and further out cities even more. The buses need to be paid for now even before low cost tickets are sold. The costs for the stage and sound will be in the tens of thousands of dollars. We are printing hundreds of thousands of flyers, posters, and stickers to publicize the march and the impeachment movement. Please make a donation now to help this demonstration succeed.

You can make an online donation or send a check by clicking here. Your help will make a difference!

All out for the March on the Pentagon, Saturday March 17!

In solidarity,

All of us at ImpeachBush.org/VoteToImpeach
