Lobby Dianne Feinstein for the Congo!

Right now, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is faced with war, displacement, and malnutrition due to decades of violence. YOU can do something about it! Join us as we lobby Dianne Feinstein, asking her to support the Conflict Minerals Trade Act!

Meet on Tuesday, December 8 at 11:00 a.m. at the Berkeley BART station for a debriefing on the current conflict and the proposed legislation. After, we'll journey to SF to meet with Senator Feinstein's office. Be sure to bring appropriate attire, $7.30 for the BART fare, your driver's license, and your passion for human rights! You DON'T have to be an expert on the Congo... we just need you to lend your voice to an important opportunity to stand up for international justice!

Check out the Facebook event, and get pumped for Tuesday!

If you're interested, you MUST email Elizabeth at ehopper@berkeley.edu so she can tell Feinstein's office who's coming and they can put your name on a list for security.
