Tuesday, May 5, 4:30-6pm | rush-hour picket at Susan Gaertner's campaign office: 1821 University Ave. W., St. Paul, (corner of University and Fairview), Suite 116
As Susan Gaertner struggles to raise money for her floundering campaign for the DFL governor endorsement, she's also continuing another type of political campaign ... one that could land community organizers in prison.
Gaertner has the power to drop the charges against all those saddled with potential felonies in the aftermath of the RNC. In total, 15 such cases are still being prosecuted as part of the government's attempt to save face. In an effort to quell the pressure on her, Gaertner recently dropped two of the four conspiracy charges against the RNC 8. First the eight faced one charge, then four, and now two each. Clearly, these charges are political and must be dropped! The RNC 8 still face $250,000 in legal fees while Susan asks donors for big bucks in order to lie to voters about the type of change she wants.
She also recently hired four full-time staffers, including finance director Berrett Gall (the guy in charge of trying to plan under-the-radar fundraisers - whoops!) and field director Nick Conti-Masanz (the guy in charge of lying to you about Susan's politics). Now, in her first big fundraiser after dropping the two most outlandish charges, she's asking for $50 to $500 for wine and snacks. Let's give her a taste of what real community members - those of us who value the freedom of friends and family more than money - think about her antics. Show up at 5pm sharp so we can catch attendees before they arrive at 5:30!
Then please join us the following Tuesday -- May 5, from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. -- to picket Susan's campaign office during the height of rush-hour visibility. We can't afford to let the pressure up now!
We're going to keep showing up at Susan's events until she does real justice for our communities ... by dropping ALL the charges against the RNC 8 and all other RNC felony cases. Try to ruin our lives? Try to ruin our communities? We'll ruin your campaign!
