IMPORTANT
UPDATE!!!
We are
excited to announce that N.J. Peace Action has obtained a meeting with
an aide to Governor Corzine on Thursday, May 31. Approximately 12
students and counter-recruitment activists from different areas of the
state will be meeting with Jane Ellen Duffy, policy advisor to the
Governor, to urge Corzine to implement a uniform statewide policy for
students to opt out of having their personal information released to
military recruiters under Clause 9528 of the No Child Left Behind Act. Since
January, we have sent the Governor nearly 200 postcards urging him to
act on this issue; and we have over 100 more which we plan to deliver
at the meeting. Can you help us reach our goal of having 200 postcards
to deliver in person by May 31? Please print a postcard HERE and return
it to N.J. Peace Action, 673 Bloomfield Ave, 2nd floor,
Bloomfield, NJ 07003 as
soon as possible. |
