DESCRIPTION:Wednesday November 19 at 10:00 a.m.\nSan Francisco City Hall\n \nBeginning 
 of ongoing protest\n \nWe demand a specific date for the issuance of 
 Municipal IDs!\n \nWe are hereby calling on all of the organizations that 
 have taken part in one way or another in the Cities for All movement (whose 
 main goal has been the implementation of Municipal IDs) to take part in the 
 press conference and ongoing protest which will begin on November 19 at San 
 Francisco City Hall.  Our protest will call on San Francisco Mayor Gavin 
 Newsom to set a specific date to begin issuing Municipal IDs.\n 
 \nBackground:\n \nMore than a year ago a majority of the San Francisco 
 Board of Supervisors approved the implementation of Municipal IDs, which 
 was supposed to take place nine months later, in August, but which for 
 various reasons did not occur and was postponed until October.\n \nAs a 
 result of the San Francisco Chronicle's recent anti-immigrant campaign, and 
 before the state and Federal elections, the Mayor decided to place the 
 program on hold pending a planned revision of the legislation to avoid 
 conflicts with Federal law.  The Supervisors had to make changes and vote 
 on the implementation of the program again.\n \nThe last news we've heard 
 is that the program should begin in three months, but because the repeated 
 delays have created distrust in the community, and because of the 
 tremendous effort that many organizations, community members, and elected 
 officials have put into this project,\n \nWE DEMAND THAT THE MAYOR PUBLICLY 
 COMMIT HIMSELF TO A SPECIFIC DATE TO BEGIN THE MUNICIPAL ID PROGRAM!\n 
 \nThis Wednesday, November 19, 2008, at 10:00 a.m., we will begin an 
 ongoing protest outside of San Francisco City Hall until Mayor Gavin Newsom 
 comes out and tells us in person what day the issuance of San Francisco 
 Municipal IDs will begin.\n \n \nContact: alianzalatinoamericana@gmail.com,
