Detroit, July 15 and 18: Protest Theft Of People’s Pensions & Water Shutoffs

Friends – We still need to protest the theft of our pensions. Nothing is final until the trial starting on August 14. Two important places to be this week:

Tuesday, July 15 one hundred retirees and concerned residents will be testifying before Judge Rhodes on their objections filed earlier. Pack the court to support them starting at 9 AM. Join the ongoing speak out in front of the court from 11 AM to 2 PM. You can voice your objections and speak to the media without the 5 minute limit imposed by the judge.
The national NetRoots Convention at Cobo Hall will be breaking for lunch to march and rally throughout downtown Detroit alongside us to demand no privatization of Detroit – no to water shutoffs, no to pension cuts. We expect many hundreds of convention participants. Be outside Cobo Hall at 1 PM, Friday, July 18. The march will end up at Hart Plaza if you cannot do the walking.
If you want to help organize our continuing protests against pension cuts, water shutoffs and other attacks by Snyder, Duggan and Orr, come to our weekly meetings, Mondays at 7 PM at 5920 Second Avenue, just north of Wayne State University, Detroit.

Sincerely – David Sole
Stop Theft of Our Pensions Committee
