APRIL DAYS OF ACTION:
The packet for local organizers is ready!

The second International Nike Mobilization takes place on and around April
18. For this event, Campaign for Labor Rights has joined forces with a
coalition organizing opposition to trade bills such as the Free Trade Area
of the Americas and other aspect of the corporate "free trade" agenda. We
have prepared a special packet just for the Days of Action. It includes
several very informative fact sheets, sample press releases, a flier master
for promoting your events and a two-sided leaflet master for use at 
events -
and more!

We are asking recipients to donate $5.00 toward printing and postage costs.
Information on where to send money is in the cover letter. This is strictly
voluntary. Cost should not be a barrier to receiving this packet. We are
eager for all organizers of local events for April 18 to receive the packet.

This packet is in HARD COPY ONLY - SEND YOUR POSTAL ADDRESS.

To receive the packet, call (541) 344-5410 or send an email to
CLR@xxxxxxxxxxx Please let us know about your plans for April 18.

CHANTS NEEDED:

Do you have ideas for good chants for use during the April Days of Action?
Chants are needed on the following subjects:

*   Nike
*   "free trade" bills
*   the global sweatshop

If you have ideas for chants in Spanish, we could use those as well as
chants in English. Please send your ideas for chants to CLR@xxxxxxxxxxx We
will post chants later, when we have a good collection. Thanks for helping!!!
