CITIZENS UNITED RALLY and LEGISLATIVE CONTACTS
ON TUESDAY, January 22
Citizens from across Maine will be converging
on Augusta to urge the legislature to pass a resolution calling for a
Constitutional Amendment. Maine Citizens for Clean elections is staging
a rally outside the State House, to be followed by meetings with our
legislators and the vote on this resolution.
To get as many
people to Augusta as possible they are chartering a bus to pick people
up on MDI and in Ellsworth. The bus schedule is:
6:30 am - Bus leaves COA in Bar Harbor
7:00 am - Bus leaves Somesville One Stop
7:30 am - Bus leaves Mill Mall in Ellsworth
9:30 Bus arrives in Augusta
10:00 am - Rally at the State House with a big-name speaker
10:30 am to 1 pm - meet with (and possibly have lunch with) legislators
Afternoon - potentially watch the legislature vote on the resolution
No later than 2:30 - return drive Downeast
They
are asking for a sliding-scale contribution of $5 to $25 to make it
possible for people with limited income to ride the bus to Augusta
