[Comment: Departments missing: Most of Science, Math, Engineering. This is outrageous.]

Why are We Going to Sacramento on March 4? Three reasons:

1. March 4th is a day of statewide action for public education. It is not just a UC protest or even just a protest on behalf of higher education. High schools, elementary schools, community colleges, CSUs— all and more are taking to the streets, the capitol and civic centers that day to decry what has happened to public education in California and to insist that the state can and mus do better. Those of us going to Sacramento are joining demonstrators and speakers from the CSUs, the Community Colleges, and the K-12 schools.

2. It is important to address our ire over the budget crisis in one of the places where it began, the seat of state government, and to some of the bodies who can help solve it—legislators, the governor, and the taxpayers of California. Driven by neoliberal politics of tax-cuts, law-and-order, and undemocratic voting, California's government has become dysfunctional. Anti-tax sentiment has brought us close to ruin: education has suffered along with other public goods.

3. This action, like all others on March 4th, is in the spirit of “marching forth” on March 4th. We affirm all non-violent actions on behalf of education on that day, including rallies planned for downtown Oakland and San Francisco.
