*URGENT FUNDRAISING APPEAL! SUPPORT GLOBAL WOMEN’S STRIKE NETWORK
DELEGATION TO SACRAMENTO TO TAKE PART IN WEEK 5 OF THE POOR PEOPLE’S
CAMPAIGN*

*Everybody’s Got the Right To Live: Living Wages, Jobs, Income, Housing,
Education!*


On June 11th, multi-racial grassroots campaigners with the Global Women’s
Strike Northern and SoCal and International Women’s Strike/LA networks will
again travel to Sacramento, joining thousands of others across the U.S for
the Week 5 action called by The Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for
a Moral Revival.  On June 11th, in over 30 state capitols people will rise
up around the theme *Everybody’s Got the Right To Live: Living Wages, Jobs,
Income, Housing, Education*.  In California a rally and press conference at
the State Capitol in Sacramento will begin at 12:30, followed by a civil
disobedience direct action.




*Our deep appreciation to those who donated to help get our grassroots
delegation to the May 14**th action *– our 40 member multiracial delegation
of women, men and 2 children (above) joined hundreds of other Californians
taking action, along with people in other state capitols, to end the
poverty of women, children and people with disabilities. We were also part
of the powerful PPC Week 3 action on May 29th protesting* The War Economy,
Militarism and the Proliferation of Gun Violence. *

We urgently need your help to raise an additional $1000 to cover our costs
to return to Sacramento for the June 11*th action, *including
transportation; housing; food and water; child and elder care; first aid
and rally materials (i.e. flyers, poster board, markers). We’re committed
to making it possible for all who want to take part in our delegation to
again come to Sacramento no matter their financial situation.

The Poor People’s Campaign carries forward the work of Dr. Martin Luther
King, please support our effort to take part in this historic national
movement bringing people together to end poverty, racism, the war economy
and ecological devastation. If any funds raised are left over, they will
help delegation members participate in the last weeks of the 40 days of
action, including the final rally in Washington DC.

Thank you for your support and solidarity!
