We are going to make a last push to get 8016 to the Senate floor for a vote. Please forward this email to kindred spirits.

MONDAY, MARCH 12TH, IS IMPEACHMENT DAY AT THE CAPITOL. PLAN TO VISIT MEMBERS OF THE SENATE, STAND VIGIL AROUND THE CHAMBER, TO BE SEEN EVERYWHERE.

People will be converging on the Capitol to meet with the Senators and to generally be a presence. We will begin to meet around 11 on the North side of the Capitol--top of the stairs. Vigil with signs--noon-1, so folks who work for the state can join in.
This may go on after that around the Capitol campus, if the spirit moves people.We need to be seen.

Others may wish to lobby Senators to support 8016.
Lobbying:

Please take as many of the following actions as you can:

1) Go to Olympia to make a constituent visit your local Senator. Leave a note or print this form letter below and leave it for ALL THE SENATORS in the inbox in their office. Please take responsibility for arranging carpools from all points. Plan to present a short and civil explanation about why you want your senator to support SJM 8016. KEEP TRACK OF WHO SAYS THEY WILL SUPPORT, AND LET LINDA BOYD KNOW.

2) Contact the Dem leadership and your Senator - go to http:// www1.leg.wa.gov/Senate to find your Senator. Below is a sample letter you can send.

"Dear Senator ,

The people of Washington State have a golden opportunity to make their voices heard in Washington DC. SJM 8016 petitions Congress to open serious investigations leading to possible impeachment for grave allegations of abuse of power and wrongdoing by President Bush and Vice President Cheney.

You can make a difference in our country and in our State. I urge you to MOVE THIS BILL FORWARD by allowing Bill SJM 8016 to go to the Senate floor for a vote. Thank you for supporting this legislation.

Sincerely,"

3) Contact everyone in your address book and send them a copy of this email and urge them to contact the above Legislators and all their friends as well.

7) Ask for the support of individuals and organizations who might be able to influence our Senators. We need to pull out all the stops until we get the vote for SJM 8016,

WE WANT THE WHOLE ENCHILADA.

IMPEACH. INVESTIGATE. REMOVE.

We are creating our future with positive actions today.

Linda Boyd
Washington For Impeachment

If you can't come to the Capitol, call, fax and/or email your Senator and the Senate Democratic leadership....

Restoring the Constitution requires that Bush/Cheney be impeached. There is no other issue that matters as much for the future of our children and grandchildren. Thanks for whatever help you can provide. This is crunch time. »
