End the War -- Bring All the Troops Home Now -- Turn this Country Around!

The president's approval ratings keep tanking ... and momentum is building
for the massive April 29th demonstration.

We all know the country is heading in the wrong direction -- April 29 will
be a powerful occasion to unite for change. The event has already received

one of our web buttons and add it to your website or blog, to help spread
the word about this not-to-be-missed protest.

We are still in negotiations with the NYC police over the route, so we
can't yet announce where to assemble, but we can tell you that it will be
in a central Manhattan location, with the march stepping off at noon. We
will share more details as soon as they are available. There will be places
for organized contingents to gather, although we will not be able to begin
assigning spots until the route is finalized.

The march will proceed through the streets of New York City and culminate
with a massive action-oriented festival, featuring hundreds of grassroots
groups and campaigns. There will be tents dedicated to different issues and
themes; exhibits, displays, and information; street performers; and much
more. We will not be holding a traditional rally. Groups wishing to table
at the festival will soon be able to sign up for space at
