Rally in Support of Asylum Seekers - Friday, November 30th at 4:00 pm

​Civil Rights Forum and Quad Cities Interfaith
ICE Headquarters, Federal Courthouse
Rock Island, IL

Read this story at the Dispatch-Argus.

Thanks to all who came to a cold winter rally in support of Central American asylum seekers who were tear-gassed by our government. We are a land of immigrants, and we demand that our government and ICE treat asylum seekers humanely. We further demand that our government and ICE follow our own laws and international laws that give asylum seekers the right to apply for asylum.

We plan to follow up this rally with meetings with our Illinois and Iowa Senators and Representatives and local ICE officials.

The rally was organized by Aaron Wagner of Quad Cities Interfaith.

What You Can Do Now - Sign Up for the Affordable Care Act or Help Others to Do It!

Help Someone Enroll In The Affordable Care Act

From the PACC HealthCare Reform Forum

If you do not have health insurance, check out coverage options under the Affordable Care Act.  Do it now -- the deadline is December 15th!

If you know of a family member, friend, neighbor, or co-worker who might not have health insurance, ask them if they are insured.  If they are not, urge them to check out ACA coverage.  Offer to help them find out if they may qualify for subsidized premiums under the ACA.  Use information from the “Need Health Insurance?” fliers below. They are available in both English and Spanish.

A first time applicant may need help from you or from one of the sources listed on the flier.  Your personal help and encouragement may be crucial in getting your friend insured.  This will not only benefit your friend, it will also help show public support for keeping and improving the ACA and health care for all Americans.

Another way you can help is to print out some flyers and post them on bulletin boards in barber and beauty shops, pharmacies, libraries, coffee shops, family restaurants, etc.  If you need copies of the flyers, contact me.

Take Action to Stop the Department of the Interior Records Destruction!

Stop the Massive Destruction of Department of Interior Records by Secretary Ryan Zinke
**Comment Period Ends: Friday, November 23rd 5:00 pm**


Environmental Forum
The National Archives and Records Administration

The Department of the Interior has sent National Archives & Records Administration (NARA) a massive "Request for Records Disposition Authority," (i.e. permission to destroy old records.)

Interior’s request involves documents about oil and gas leases, mining, dams, wells, timber sales, marine conservation, fishing, endangered species, non-endangered species, critical habitats, land acquisition, and more.

The request covers these categories of documents from every agency within the Interior Department, including the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, US Fish & Wildlife Service, US Geological Survey, Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and others.

The request covers already-existing documents going back more than 50 years and consisting of thousands of cubic feet of paper documents and gigabytes of digital documents. Besides existing documents, as usual, the proposed schedule will also apply to all future documents created in these categories (whether on paper or born digital).  Source: altgov2.org/doi-records-destruction/

Action:

Email [email protected] with a Public Comment. Deadline: November 23, 2018.


Sample Script:     
"I am writing about action DAA-0048-2015-0003. I am against this massive destruction of records. This content would normally be kept and preserved by the U.S. Department of Interior. I am asking National Archives to deny Secretary Zinke's request so that these records are kept as they should be." [Sign with your name]

Call your representatives.  Here is a suggested call Script:
"My name is __________. I am a constituent, and my zip code is _______. I am a member of Progression Action for the Common Good in the Quad Cities.

"Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke has asked the National Archives for a massive destruction of records that normally are kept for historical purposes. This is an unusual and troubling request. I am asking you to investigate this request and to stop the destruction of important and valuable records. The National Archives ID number is DAA-0048-2015-0003."

The PACG Renewable Energy Conference Was a HUGE Success!

Our event of Friday, November 9th was highly anticipated and well-received. Attendance was over 110 people, including presenters, exhibitors and attendees. The PACG Environmental Forum deserves our gratitude for their hard work. And a sincere "Thank you!" goes out to all of the presenters and exhibitors who are so committed to the cause of renewable energy.

Since so much important information was shared, we are making the conference program, presentations, and contact information readily accessible. (Note: The Renewable Energy Specialist Program is offered by Eastern Iowa Community College (Scott County Community College) and they were one of the exhibitors at our conference. This training may be of interest to some.)

Nobody is Above the Law - Rapid Response for Jeff Sessions Firing

11/8/2018

0 Comments

 

Attend the Nobody is Above the Law Rally TODAY at 5:00 pm 
Davenport - LeClaire Park  
400 West Beiderbecke DR (map) 
Rock Island - US County Clerk 211 19th ST (map)

With the firing of Attorney General Jeff Sessions yesterday, Donald Trump is demonstrating his intention to put himself above the law. We won’t allow it.

Trump is compromising the Special Counsel investigation and will create a constitutional crisis if he fires special counsel Robert Mueller or Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who oversees Mueller.

Our response is imperative now! We must show Members of Congress that they need to stand up to Trump or allow him to move our democracy toward authoritarianism.

From the MoveOn rally organizers: "Donald Trump has installed a crony to oversee the special counsel's Trump-Russia investigation, crossing a red line set to protect the investigation. By replacing Rod Rosenstein with just-named Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker as special counsel Robert Mueller's boss on the investigation, Trump has undercut the independence of the investigation. Whitaker has publicly outlined strategies to stifle the investigation and cannot be allowed to remain in charge of it. The Nobody Is Above the Law network demands that Whitaker immediately commit not to assume supervision of the investigation. Our hundreds of response events are being launched to demonstrate the public demand for action to correct this injustice. We will update this page as the situation develops."

MoveOn is holding emergency “Nobody is Above the Law” rallies around the country TODAY at 5:00 pm local time. There are over 900 of these demonstrations planned, in every state, with 350,000 RSVPs to date!

RSVP to attend the rallies today.  Nobody is Above the Law – Mueller Firing Rapid Response rallies here:

For Davenport RSVP here.

For Rock Island RSVP here.

Civil Disobedience Training
from the PACG Board

Sunday, November 11th 4:00 pm
Metropolitan Community Church, 2930 W Locust St, Davenport, IA (map)

Rev. Rich Hendricks of the Metropolitan Community Church is training activists in peaceful civil disobedience. This training is very important!  If you have not yet gone through one of these sessions, and you think that you might wish to participate in acts of peaceful civil disobedience, you really need to go through the training.  With the administration considering redefining Transgender out of existence and the approach of the Immigrant Caravan, we may soon find ourselves needing to engage in acts of peaceful civil disobedience, should the government remain unresponsive to our protests.

Note: Even if you do not want to personally participate in civil disobedience, we need support in the community for those who do, and those supporters also need to be trained.
