DESCRIPTION:Hello everyone,\n\nAs you know, this is a busy week for peace actions.  
 Activists have been trying for several days to get Congresswoman Doris 
 Matsui to make a public commitment to stop funding and otherwise supporting 
 the U.S. occupation of Iraq.  Many people have staged sit-ins in the lobby 
 of Matsui's Sacramento office this week.  Thus far, the effort has been 
 futile: Matsui hasn't responded at all.    \n\nTherefore, a direct action 
 will be held this Friday, from 3pm to 5pm, in the form of a peaceful and 
 lawful protest IN FRONT OF CONGRESSWOMAN MATSUI'S SACRAMENTO HOME.  If her 
 constituents can't get her attention at her office, then maybe she'll pay 
 attention when we visit her home!    \n\nAlthough Matsui will probably be 
 in D.C., that's fine.  The important thing is that the symbolic effect of 
 protesting in front of Congresswoman Matsui's home will generate public 
 interest.  It will create an opportunity for us to further publicize our 
 expectation and insistence that she oppose any more funding or escalation 
 of the Iraq occupation.  We also need to do this because her silence and 
 prior acquiescence has been completely unacceptable!  Whether she's home or 
 not, you can bet that she'll hear about our visit and our reasons for it!   
       \n\nSo please join us this Friday from 3:00 to 5:00 pm in front of 
 Doris Matsui's home.  \n\nPlease bring signs, etc. \n\nAnd remember that 
 Friday's event is IN ADDITION TO the large peace demonstration that will 
 occur at 16th & Broadway this Saturday from 3:30 to 6pm.\n\nWe look forward 
 to seeing you there!\n\n\n\n\n
