Greetings WILPF SISTAHS,
I am forwarding this message to you from Margrete
Strand Rangnes of Public Citizen Global Trade Watch.
For those of you interested in taking part in this
national day of action, please read on. Women's
International League for Peace and Freedom has a
stronger policy statement. "We Say No to the WTO".
Peace and Blessings,
Victoria Carter
ACTION ALERT: NATIONAL CALL-IN DAY ON THE WTO
Demand a "Review & Repair" of the WTO!
The World Trade Organization (WTO) is meeting in
Seattle from November
30th
to December 3rd, 1999. Several of the WTO member
countries are pushing
to
expand its powers into new areas, like investment.
The WTO has shown
a
terrible track record in its first five years, ruling
against
environmental
and health safeguards each time it has reviewed them.
The WTO should
be
replaced, minimally fixed, rather than expanded! More
than 1100
organizations world-wide have called for a "Review and
Repair" of the
WTO.
On Tuesday, November 30th, join concerned citizens and
organizations
from
across the country and abroad in a Day of Action
against the WTO. In
cities
and communities around the U.S. events are being
organized on this
day, to
coincide with the massive "March on the WTO" that is
being organized
for
Seattle by the labor movement. While thousands of
people are marching
on the
streets in Seattle, tens of thousands of people should
also be taking
action
around the country. YOU can participate in this
historic event by:
1) Organize an event - like a march, a press
conference, a teach-in
in your
community on or around the 30th of November. Contact
mstrand@citizen.org or
alesha@citizen.org for information about events
planned in your
community.
2) By participating in a National Call-IN Day on the
WTO
The goal of the call-in is to show:
* Broad opposition to expanding the WTO into areas
such as investment;
* Broad support for assessing the WTO's impacts to
date on our health,
environment and democracy;
* Broad opposition to secretive, unaccountable
institutions - like the
WTO -
ruling over us.
Call the following numbers below on Tuesday, November
30th to send a
message
to the Administration: "Your NAFTA-WTO trade program
has failed
terribly. We
will never allow it to be expanded. You need a new
plan to protect the
public and our planet, not more of the same failed
trade policy."
