Victory!

March permits obtained
for mass march on
September 24
directly in front of the
White House
on Pennsylvania Ave.

The A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition has secured a permit from the Metropolitan Police Department for the mass march on September 24 that will take the demonstration directly in front of the White House on Pennsylvania Ave. This is the first time in many years that a march permit has been secured allowing people to exercise their First Amendment right for a mass assembly march and protest on Pennsylvania Ave. right at the doorstep of the White House.

Momentum is building all over the country. More than 100 cities have established Transportation Centers to bring buses to what will be the largest antiwar demonstration in a long time.

The A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition expresses its gratitude to the attorneys with the Partnership for Civil Justice, who are also with the National Lawyers Guild, for their work in securing these march permits.

The last thing George Bush and the warmakers want to see is hundreds of thousands of people demonstrating on Pennsylvania Ave. right in front of the White House - but that is what they will see!

1. Can you give me any advice on getting accomodations in DC for

me and my two daughters for that weekend? I will pay up to $150 per night but all I am finding so far on the web of available locations are for $3-400 per night (yikes). I know you are not a travel agent (and I will try mine tomorrow) but thought you or others might have some suggestions. Thanks.

2. Have you tried the Maryland, Virginia and DC forums?

Locals may have some good tips.
