Up and down the Peninsula: OPERATION CALTRAIN

We will be leafletting at Caltrain stations during the morning commute for the fifth month in a row, asking commuters to take the Moratorium pledge and take action against the war. The effort requires at least two people per station to distribute leaflets and black ribbons between 7:30 a.m. and 9:00 a.m.

Not available on Friday morning? You can also leaflet at your local farmer's market or downtown shopping area on weekends; the Iraq Moratorium project is trying to get the word out as widely as possible, anywhen we can.

To coordinate and get materials, please contact Elaine at 650-796-5866 or eephoebe@hotmail.com. Visit the Operation Caltrain web page for more details.

The Iraq Moratorium is an escalating monthly series of actions demanding an end to the war. On the third Friday of every month, we will take the time to show our President and Congress that our troops must be brought home, now! Sign the pledge!
