Title A name given to the resource Madison Area Peace Coalition E-mails Description An account of the resource The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001.

Hello all, Look on the bright side - now we know where Kohl stands on the bill (bastard)... Seriously, I think it's important to give our Congressional delegation feedback on how they DID vote, as well as how we'd LIKE them to vote on future bills. So, I think calls to Kohl's office expressing our disappointment are totally in order, especially given all the info against S.1510 we presented to his office Tues morning. And we should thank Feingold for his lonely dissent (apparently they've been getting lots of negative calls). Speaking of Feingold, I finally (FINALLY!) just heard back from his office regarding setting up a meeting. It's set for Mon, Oct 22 at 10 am in his Middleton office. They took a while in getting back to me b/c they were trying to coordinate schedules with the relevant DC aides - so, we'll be meeting in person with local staff, and simultaneously with DC staff by phone. I'd like to suggest we meet before the next general MAPC meeting - say 5:45 Tues 10/16 in the Memorial Union, in the same room where the 6:30 general MAPC meeting will be. If that room is occupied, let's meet in the good old Paul Bunyan room. How does that sound? A few suggestions:     We should draft a Congressional action alert for the larger group, with talking points (including info on past votes of our reps and pending legislation) and set a day for people to call (it makes a bigger impact on offices that way). We can discuss what to include Tues night.     Although there's a lot we should continue to do on the Congressional level, I think it'd be good to come up with a plan for getting our city council to pass a sense resolution for peace, in protection of civil liberties, etc. We'd need to check to see if anything's been passed since Sept 11, figure out who on the Council to approach, talk with them about what's the best angle to take. Once we decide how to proceed, we can draw up a petition in support of the resolution. hasta la victoria siempre, x > Senate passed S1510--the USA Act--yesterday 96-1 vote.  Wisconsin Senator > Russ Feingold was the only dissenting voice... > > > _______________________________________________ > policy@madpeace.org > http://lists.OpenSoftwareServices.com/mailman/listinfo/madpeace-policy ____________________________________________ East Timor Action Network field organizer   ETAN field office Social Justice Center office 608-663-5431                         1202 Williamson St cell 608-347-4598                           Madison, WI 53703 home 608-255-4598                           fax 608-227-0141 Check out these internet sites! the East Timor Action Network/US http://www.etan.org Madison, WI - East Timor projects http://www.aideasttimor.org Madison's Social Justice Center http://www.socialjusticecenter.org "Independence is not about having a flag, a president, a parliament, a government. Independence must imply, year by year, gradual change in the life of the entire population of Timor Lorosa'e. If we fail to effect change in the daily life of the people, independence will be a meaningless concept, all our sacrifices throughout the years of the struggle will be in vain.
