BUSH: STEP DOWN And Take Your Program With You!
1. Jan. 31, on The Night of President Bush’s State of the Union Address:

Bring the Noise!

Drown Out Bush’s Lies!

In large cities and small towns all across the country, join in rallies one hour before Bush’s address as we make our determination to “Drive Out the Bush Regime” the political message of the day.

At 9:00 PM EST, just as Bush starts to speak, everywhere we will BRING THE NOISE. In a cacophony of sound, we will drown out his address with music: from drums to violins, from hip hop and classical; and with noise: banging pots and ringing church bells, sound car horns and lifting our voices.


2. DEMONSTRATE on SATURDAY, FEB. 4

(following the State of the Union)

Washington D.C.

The Saturday after the State of the Union address, massive numbers will protest at the seat of government. Prominent voices of conscience will help deliver the people’s verdict on Bush’s criminal regime with our demand: Bush Step Down And Take Your Program with You!

Organize a protest in your city: email [email protected] with your plans. Information on protest locations and more will be coming soon.

4 immediate objectives for late December:

1) Raise money to run the protest plans for the State of the Union and the Call for The World Can’t Wait – Drive Out the Bush Regime in major newspapers, as well as radio ads on Air America.

2) Get students and professors prepared to for when campus gets back in session to moblize the campuses for the State of the Union.

3) Saturate communities and schools with materials announcing this, and take out ads specifically calling for this State of the Union manifestation. Flier a movie on 12/25. High school students - spend your winter break selling t-shirts and posters from WCW to holiday shoppers. Contact the national office and local chapters for more info.

4) Reach out to organized professional and social justice organizations and bring them solidly in this movement - librarians, neighborhood associations, religious institutions — getting not just endorsements but resolutions that BUSH STEP DOWN and taking action during the State of the Union.
