855.0. "In DC In Name As Well As Spirit" by EDIT::RUSSELL () Tue Nov 07 1989 18:14

    
    
    Hello. I am going down to Washington DC this weekend to particiapte in
    the Mobilization for Women's Lives.  The pro-choice rally.
    
    I've talked with a lot of people who would like to go but for various
    reasons, cannot.  (I've also talked with a lot of people who are
    going.)
    
    My Mom is one of the folks who cannot make the trip.  She told me she'd
    be there in spirit and would write to her congressman to say as much.
    I joked that I should make a sign saying I represent her as well.
    Then I thought, why not?  I'd like to make and carry a sign saying that
    I am not a single marcher but represent many.  So, my sign will say
    something like:
    
              Also representing:
             Linda Russell of NJ
             Jim Gonzalez of MA
             Carol Goldberg of NY
               PRO-CHOICE VOTERS        
    
    Would you like to be on the sign as well?  Any reply received before
    5:00 pm on Thursday, November 9th can be included.  I will only
    include you if you are the originator. If I get a lot of positive replies,
    great!  I'll make more than one sign.  I'm going down with a carload of
    folks so there will be plenty of hands to carry your names.
    
    You can give me your name as a reply to this base note or send me mail
    at CUPCSG::RUSSELL.  I'd like your state as well.
    
    Also, if you're not going, write to your state and national
    legislators and participate in your local rally.
