Michael Moore is waiting to hear from you.

In homes across America, people are gathering on November 14 to push the debate of health care for America one step further. Every four years, politicians talk about the millions in America without insurance and the need to change the system. And every four years, nothing happens. This time it can't be all talk.

We have the power to build the Health Care for America campaign into a grassroots movement the politicians can't ignore. On November 14, we'll take one step forward, by sitting down with our friends and neighbors to watch SiCKO and then take action.

From your house party, you'll be able to call in to hear Michael Moore and Jim Dean speak about what our community will do next in the Health Care for America campaign, and how you can be a part of the action.

So far there are 4 house parties next Wed. that are linked to Sacramento for Democracy. Please take a moment to RSVP to one of these parties so the hosts can plan for the event.

WAR RESISTER ADVOCATE WILL VISIT SACRAMENTO ON NOVEMBER 14TH
Will Show New Film About AWOL GI’s in Canada

BREAKING RANKS is a one hour film that tells the stories of four young AWOL soldiers who are seeking sanctuary in Canada. This poignant new film was co-produced by the National Film Board of Canada and has been nominated for many awards.

Wednesday, November 14, 2007 7-9 p.m.
Curtis Hall, Sierra 2
2791 24th Street, Sacramento

Gerry Condon will lead a discussion afterwards. The event is free. Donations will be accepted for Project Safe Haven and war resisters in Canada.

During the last four years, more than 20,000 U.S. military personnel have gone AWOL. A couple hundred GI’s headed to Canada rather than deploy to the U.S. war and occupation of Iraq. Gerry Condon knows what these young men and women are going through. In 1969, he deserted from the U.S. Army after refusing orders to Vietnam. For six years, Condon lived in Canada and Sweden, where he organized for amnesty for all war resisters.

Now, as Director of Project Safe Haven, Gerry Condon travels throughout the U.S. and Canada to drum up support for a new generation of war resisters. On November 14, Condon will visit Sacramento, where he will show a new film about U.S. war resisters in Canada and speak out on their behalf. His visit is sponsored by Central American Action Committee and Sacramento Peace Action.
