We're all in this together,
MoisheNOLA
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RALLY & Protest to Save the Gulf:
Sunday May 30 at 1pm in Jackson Square, New Orleans
Why is Washington DC leaving our communities to DIE in the BP Oil Flood?
WHY is the Federal Government standing idle? BP is murdering the Gulf !
WHERE is the federal response? We the people of the Gulf Coast demand IMMEDIATE FEDERAL INTERVENTION and deployment of all available resources to STOP this flood of oil into the Gulf… NOW!
BP’s greed & negligence MURDERED eleven human beings– real working people, just like you and me, with real families, spouses and children– and now BP is DESTROYING the entire Gulf Coast while the Federal Government does NOTHING!
This is CHERNOBYL IN THE GULF. The BP Oil Flood is destroying the Gulf of Mexico for ENTIRE GENERATIONS. WHERE is the leadership at the federal level? Where is the action?
BP cannot or will not stop it. The government MUST INTERVENE and by any means necessary with all available resources STOP THE BP OIL FLOOD!
JOIN US SUNDAY, MAY 30 to PROTEST!
Jackson Square, 1 pm!
