FINAL COUNTDOWN ON CHINA "PNTR"
TO All Local Union Rapid Response
Coordinators:
The China "PNTR" vote is expected to take place during the week of May
22.
- Sub District Offices will do a final mailing of letters on April
27th and 28th. Make sure that all letters have been
delivered to the Sub District Office by the 27th.
- In order for your Local to get credit for participation in this action,
your letters should be in your Sub District Office by April 27th
and your total reported to your District Rapid Response Coordinator by that
date.
- There are still Congresspersons that claim to be undecided on "PNTR" and
the Local Unions in their targeted areas have been contacted to put extra
pressure on them:
If you are a member of one of these locals, please understand the importance
of your participation in any targeted activities organized by your District
Rapid Response Coordinator. This vote will be close and we need to win.
- May 4th will be a National Fax Day. Be sure that you have the
fax number of your Congressperson handy. It is in the Congressional Handbook
or call your District RR Coordinator for the information. These faxes will go
out to targeted Congresspersons so watch for the upcoming list to see if your
legislator is included.
- Sample faxes and instructions will be sent to all Local Unions. There will
be a different message for Democrats and Republicans. Expect a "Fast Fax"
information piece later this week.
Thank you for all of your hard work !!!
