100 Days til Philly!

I'm going to be lazy and copy and paste...I forgot to do this earlier. Today marks 100 days until the Adoptee Rights Demonstration, to be held in Philadelphia, PA in conjunction with the annual Legislative Summit of the National Conference of State Legislators. There will be three letter writing campaigns leading up to the protest...one today, one marking 50 days til the demonstration, and one week prior to the demonstration. All the instructions are at the link listed below. I wrote five letters (one to the governor, two to senators, and two to representatives). They won't be postmarked the 13th, but they do have the correct date on the letters themselves! If you have a few minutes and a few stamps, please write a few letters. You can fax them, too, if that's easier. There are even instructions at the link below to have snail mail letters mailed online!

Oh...and here's crossing my fingers that DMC will be attending this year! Without further ado, here's the cut and paste:

Please go here:
http://adopteerightsphilly.blogspot.com/2008/12/letter-writing-campaign.html There is a sample letter there.

Write your letters and send them Monday April 13th. This marks the beginning of the 100 days to the Demonstration!

Send this out to everyone you know! Blog it, email it, Facebook it! Everyone you know should be writing a letter to their legislators, urging them to introduce legislation in their states that allows unhampered access to original birth certificates to all adult adoptees.

Please take part in this very very important step on the road to Philly!
