Call-In May 23, 24

[marylia.kelley@environet.org]

Hi -- I hope this is going out to the whole career-pro bulletin board of users.
The enclosed file contains a reminder and text regarding the National Call-In
days May 23 and 24. The news out of DC is precarious at best re: the FY 1996
budget for cleanup at DOE and DOD facilities. It is very important that the
National Security (House) Committee hear from those of us who live around these
facilities and will be DIRECTLY affected by unwise budget cuts. Here is the file...

Dear people who care about environmental restoration:

You are invited--and needed--to participate in a national call-in to save the 
environmental cleanup budget.

The goal is to get hundreds--hopefully thousands--of people who live around 
DOE and DOD sites to call in on May 23 and May 24 to their state's member on 
the National Security Committee to emphasize the importance of cleanup of 
military sites. 

Please take the ascii text and reproduce it in a pretty typeface onto a flyer 
and circulate it to your group, allied groups and amongst your friends. Call 
Marylia Kelley at (510) 443-7148 or contact me at Marylia.Kelley@environet.org 
if you have any questions.

 HELP GET THE WORD OUT....CALL-IN.....

Save Environmental Cleanup!
National Call-In Days
Tuesday, May 23 & Wednesday, May 24
(202) 224-3121

All across America communities that have hosted military facilities sacrificed 
their air, water and soil to toxic and radioactive pollutants.

Now, the clean up budget--the dollars needed to clean up these dangerous
sites--is under attack in Congress. The military budget as a whole is rising,
so it's not a lack of funds, but, rather, a matter of priorities.

Our government has made promises to our communities affected by the Energy 
Department's nuclear weapons complex and the Defense Department bases and 
related sites. We, who live in the shadows of these facilites, must hold our 
government accountable.

Join with hundreds--perhaps thousands--of people in communities and situations 
like yours in this National Call-In to save the cleanup budget. Get members of 
your organization to pledge to Call-In. Involve your friends and neighbors. 
Together, we can make a difference!

Tell the House National Security Committee that our environment and the health 
of our communities is your number one priority! Tell the Committee member from 
your state to save environmental cleanup!
