Leafletting at Caltrain Stations
We had great success in reaching commuters on September 21st, the first Iraq Moratorium day. We gave out leaflets and black ribbons at Mountain View, California Avenue, Palo Alto, Redwood City, and San Carlos. We got a lot of support from train riders and all those who participated agreed to continue on October 19. We want to extend our efforts from San Jose to San Francisco. Already San Mateo and Hillsdale will be included, and possibly Belmont and Burlingame.
This effort requires two people (or four where there is also a bus depot) to distribute the leaflets and ribbons between 7:30 and 9:00 a.m.
Please let us know if you can leaflet at a Caltrain station near you.
This event is part of the Iraq Moratorium project, an escalating monthly series of actions demanding an end to the war. Starting on Friday, September 21 and on the third Friday of every month thereafter, individuals and groups across the U.S. will take the time to show our President and Congress that our troops must be brought home, now! Sign the pledge at http://www.iraqmoratorium.org
