Portland IndyMedia:<\/p>\n\n\n
LOBBY DAY FOR IMPEACHMENT: TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2008, 10 A.M. — 3 P.M., WA STATE CAPITOL CAMPUS, OLYMPIA.
We will meet in the cafeteria on the capitol campus at 10:00 am to distribute materials and team up. Someone will meet late comers at the cafeteria at 11:30. We will visit the offices of legislators, "pink slip" legislators in session, and deliver information.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n\n\n
Personal lobbying — just as fun as Halloween, and candy on every desk! Join us for an hour or all day.
We are playing Beat the Clock. The most important items on the legislative agenda are SJM 8016 and HJM 4027. Both are in committees. If they are not out by February 8th, impeachment is over.<\/p>\n

There can be no business as usual as long as our rights and system of government are under attack. We must hold legislators to their oaths.<\/p>\n

Our State Legislators can simply move our memorials along to the floor of the US House. Let’s let them know that we cannot accept anything less. Join folks from Washington For Impeachment, Citizens to Impeach Bush and Cheney, Veterans For Peace, The Peace Academy, Eastside FOR, World Can’t Wait, and many others. <\/p>\n

We’ll meet at the sun dial for speeches, theater and parading around noon, weather permitting. Bring your soapbox and signs!<\/p>\n

Impeachment is the remedy for abuse of power. Be there. Linda Boyd, Washington For Impeachment
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
Please also take action by phone and email. Do not assume others will do this. There is not nearly as much email and phone calls on impeachment as there was last year! We absolutely need to jam their phones and their emails. Contacts are below. <\/p>\n

We need a MASSIVE push to move SJM 8016 and HJM 4027 in the Washington State Legislature by February 8th.<\/p>\n

SJM 8016 will go to a floor vote in the Senate when it passes Rules Committee. PLEASE HELP PUSH SJM 8016 THROUGH RULES COMMITTEE BY CREATING A DELUGE OF CALLS, VISITS AND EMAILS TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE WA STATE SENATE RULES COMMITTEE. Ask them to PULL 8016 out of the Rules Committee and onto the floor for a vote! <\/p>\n

Please thank Lisa Brown for her work on domestic partnerships last year and urge her to let our bill move quietly and swiftly forward to the US House. Vigorously thank the five cosponsors of SJM (marked***) who serve on the Rules Committee for their continued support. <\/p>\n

Senate Rules Committee: Urge them to PULL SJM 8016 from the Rules Committee and bring to a floor vote

The other Barrier to overcome is the House Government and Tribal Affairs Committee:
Urge them to schedule a hearing on HJM 4027 immediately. Each member of the Gov’t and Tribal Affairs Committee represents all of us, so kindly insist that they take your message, name and address.<\/p>\n

Please be relentless in your requests that House Speaker FRANK CHOPP help schedule a hearing for Rep. Chase’s companion bill, HJM 4027, in the Gov’t. and Tribal Affairs Committee. (360) 786-7920  Chopp.frank@leg.wa.gov<\/a><\/p>\n

Lobby Chair — Sam Hunt — to schedule a hearing for HJM 4027.
(360) 786-7992  hunt.Sam@leg.wa.gov<\/a> .
While Sam is busy stonewalling the impeachment bill, his committee heard HJM 4031 – Requesting that Congress and the President demand Ethiopia fulfill its human rights obligations.–on Friday. Yeah, we have a lot of moral authority on this one!
