Mass Mobilizations in Mexico Temporarily Stop Bush-Calderon Oil Privitization
Sheinbaum and López Obrador laid out what they called Stage Two of the National Peaceful Civil Resistance Movement. Stage Two includes the following: - increasing the number of Brigadistas from 100,000 to 200,000 by the first week of May; - mobilizing the Brigadistas to visit the homes of 1 million families -- meaning 10 million people -- by the end of June, to discuss with them the full meaning of Calderón's reform proposals, with leaflets, brochures and videos; - organizing through the Frente's intellectuals' outreach program debates at factories, high schools and universities all across Mexico; - organizing neighborhood Committees in Defense of Oil; and - remaining vigilant to take to the streets and even occupy the legislative chamber again if the PAN seeks to sneak in a vote on the privatization measures.
