Tell President Obama to cancel the Vogtle Loan Guarantee! We don’t want or need new nuclear reactors and we don’t think that taxpayers should be on the hook to support a mature industry.
Eleazar Garcia will address the devastating impacts the North American Free Trade Agreement has had on the Mexican countryside, including an abandonment of traditional sustainable ways of life of small farmers, as well as a boom in rural Mexican migration to the United States.
When: Monday, November 7th, 7:00-10:00 pm
Where: St. Luke's Lutheran Church (6835 SW 46th Avenue in Portland)
Speaking from his experience of seeing this devastation
first hand, Eleazar will not only share the negative impacts of this free trade
model, but will also present a hopeful alternative that is being carried out to
preserve the land and to stem the tide of migrants leaving rural Mexico for the
U.S.
