DESCRIPTION:Jane Midgley presents her new book...  Women and the US Budget: Where the 
 Money Goes and What You Can Do About It  The national budget represents the 
 common resources of the people of the United States. Yet only a handful of 
 experts understand the full impact of budget policy on the American people. 
 Since women comprise just a fraction of national decision-makers, women's 
 needs and perspectives are largely left out of budget policy – a critical 
 absence in our current era of rising deficits, increasing military and 
 security budgets, and cutbacks in public investment.  _Women and the US 
 Budget_ is a crash course in budget literacy for women and everyone who 
 wants to understand and transform the use of our nation's common resources, 
 as well as a tool for advocacy and action.   Jane Midgley is a public 
 policy analyst and the Director of Strategies for Success. She has twenty 
 years of experience as a non-profit leader and manager, including as 
 Legislative Director and as Executive Director of the Womens International 
 League for Peace and Freedom (US Section). She is also on the Board of 
 Directors of the Jane Addams Peace Association.  Copies of _Women and the 
 US Budget_ will be available for purchase and signing.  Free and open to 
 the public (donations welcome).  Sponsored by Peninsula Peace and Justice 
 Center and Womens International League for Peace and Freedom - Peninsula 
 Branch.  For more information, contact PPJC at 650-326-8837 or
