On Tuesday, two days before the Sept. 11 anniversary, Attorney General John Ashcroft will be speaking in New York City in support of the controversial Patriot Act. This is yet another exploitation of Americans' fear and mourning to promote the Bush administration's political agenda.
The New York ACLU and the New York Bill of Rights Defense Campaign have organized a demonstration to show the broad public sentiment against this threat to our freedoms. They are asking all supportive people to attend with signs.
Please consider joining this important action during your lunch hour on Tuesday.
WHAT: Demonstration to demand the protection of our basic civil liberties, and counter Attorney General John Ashcroft, speaking in the latest installment of his stealth Patriot Act road show.
WHEN: Tuesday, September 9 at 12 noon
WHERE: Federal Hall, 26 Wall Street at Broad Street (next to NYSE) 2/3 or 4/5 to Wall Street or J/Z to Broad Street
Map: http://www.moveon.org/r?469
WHO: New York ACLU (www.nyclu.org), New York City Bill of Rights Defense Campaign (www.nycbordc.org), United for Peace and Justice (www.unitedforpeace.org), and 60 other civil liberties organizations. Contact Udi Ofer at (212) 344-3005 x242.

I'm shocked they got the okay to assemble at that location.
I will be there.
