Legislative
aides have consistently informed us that our grassroots lobbying
actions play a large part in a Representative's decision to cosponsor HR 808. By placing thousands of calls across
the country we can make an impact heard throughout Capitol Hill.
Please join us by gathering tons of people to make calls to Congress
in support of the Department of Peace!

Jack Johnson Concert Action |
|
Sarah
Rubinton, MA organizer for the Student Peace Alliance, tabled with 10
other volunteers on August 6 at the Jack Johnson concert in Mansfield,
MA. There, Jack Johnson visited Sarah and another before the event to thank them for their peace work. The
Student Peace Alliance is leading a Picture Petition at 13 of his
concerts where concert goers take pictures with a "I support the US
Department of Peace" sign. We then send the pictures to their congressional representative. We'll have to find out who Jack Johnson's congressional representative is!
Jack Johnson also agreed to matching funds of up to $2,500, which means that we have the opportunity to raise $5,000. So if you're feeling peaceful-- donate to the Student Peace Alliance!
