11-20-2002 - Sue succesfully gets hearings to be held on January 28th, 2003. The head of the California Senate apparently met with Sue and agreed to set hearings on the old-growth issue. CA Governor Davis has still refused to meet with Sue.

11-19-2002 - Friends and colleagues of Susan Moloney have become concerned about her weakened condition as she enters her 7th week without solid food. Sue, who conducted the petition drive this spring to get a ban on logging of old growth trees on California's state wide ballot, has been persistent in her effort to get Gov. Gray Davis to live up to his campaign promise to stop logging of old growth in the state. After consulting with doctors, Sue started drinking broth last week, after ingesting only herbal tea and water for over 5 weeks. She just started drinking fruit and vegetable juice, but still has not eaten any food.

10-29-2002 - People demanding that Governor Davis uphold his promise to protect the old-growth trees of California will gather on the steps of the State Capitol with hunger striker Susan Moloney, Executive Director of the Campaign for Old Growth, and Green Party Gubernatorial Candidate Peter Camejo.
