Our Summer Vacation acation
by Norm Steenstra, [email protected]
It’s been 3 months since our last newsletter and you’ve
probably figured no news means no news. NOT! I can’t recall
a busier time atWV-CAG than the last 3 months. Protecting
Social Security from Bush’s scheme to “privatize” it has been a
major focus.We’ve been working with CAG-like groups in 27
other states to defeat the president’s pet project. So far the
public has heard the message and the president has started to
distance himself from the plan. Our Social Security team, led
by Gary Zuckett and ably assisted by Marge Michau andTed
Boettner, coordinated more than 40 events across the state
ranging from public forums to “greeting” the president in
Parkersburg, and hosting 11 birthday parties (see pg. 3).They
also met with a very reluctant Congresswoman Capito.
