DESCRIPTION:Peter Miguel Camejo\nGreen Party Candidate for Governor\nis coming to 
 Solano County!!!\n\nAre you curious about what Peter Camejo, and the Green 
 Party have to say, but never had an opportunity to hear for yourself?  Now 
 is your chance to hear a candidate for governor who will work for the 
 people, and not for corporations and special interests.  Bring your 
 questions about the issues that matter to you.\n\nSunday, September 21, 
 2003\n7 pm\n332 Georgia Street, historic BofA Building, Vallejo\n\n(From 
 I-80, exit at Georgia Street, and head west.  The building is on the 
 right-hand side of the street, just past Marin Street.)\n\nFor more 
 information, call Steve from the Solano Green Party at 707-449-3887 or 
 email at ssdj@starband.net\n\nPeter Miguel Camejo (63) is a first 
 generation Venezuelan-American who has fought for social and environmental 
 justice since his teens. Peter is chair and co-founder of Progressive Asset 
 Management, Inc., a broker-dealer firm, which promotes socially responsible 
 investments. \n\nCamejo served for five years on the Board of Directors of 
 Earth Share, a federation of the 41 largest environmental groups in the 
 United States. He also helped form the Environmental Justice Fund, to 
 finance and unify environmentalists of color. Through an organic farming 
 firm, Earth Trade, he helped Nicaragua become the world’s largest 
 producer of organic sesame. \n\nPeter has worked to defend the rights of 
 Latino workers in the U.S. and to free political prisoners in Latin 
 America. He marched in Selma, Alabama with Martin Luther King and was 
 active against the War in Vietnam. \n\nPeter is a long-time supporter of 
 the women’s movement and gay and lesbian rights. In 1987, he launched a 
 program, called “The IRA that cares” to help fund the S.F. Aids 
 Foundation..\n\nHe is fluent in Spanish and English, and lives with his 
 wife, Morella, in Folsom, California.\n\nThe Solano Green Party consists of 
 1100 registered Greens.  We are committed to working on issues of Social 
 Justice within our local community and to getting Greens elected into 
 office at the city and county levels.  The Camejo campaign and the Green 
 Party have a unique opportunity to change the way California politics 
 happens, but we can't do it without your commitment!  We welcome your 
 involvement.  You can help the Solano Green Party by:  \n\nDONATING: Our 
 opponents have dozens of statewide organizing staff, millions of dollars to 
 spend on TV commercials, and never have to check the bank balance just to 
 print new materials.  It costs money to get our message out to the 
 public.\n\n VOLUNTEER: Your vote is not enough!  No genuine grassroots 
 change can happen without citizens who will put their time and effort into 
 carrying their ideas through.  We are looking for volunteers to table at 
 farmer's markets and supermarkets; to make phone calls urging people to 
 vote; to stuff and send mailings. \n\nIf you can assist us with any of the 
 above, please call Steve at 449-3887, or email him at 
 ssdj@starband.net\n\n\n
