II. Past Action
Last Friday, Raleigh NOW joined Naral to collect signatures on Supreme Court petitions at First Night in Raleigh (Naral used theirs, and we used NOW's). Many people signed. Come to the next meeting if you want to sign too. The petition says:
"To my Senator: I am deeply concerned with the recent resignation of Sandra Day O'Connor and the nominiation of John Roberts as her replacement. Based in his previous statements, his nomination means we are facing devastating reversals on women's and civil rights in this country. I ask you to oppose his confirmation and that you demand a nominee more in tune with the majority of Americans. Thank you."
