Protest CPV Fracked Gas Power Plant Wawayanda NY 3360 US Rte. 6, Middletown, NY Saturday, Nov 16, 11 am to noon
Just forty minutes from Rockland, this plant was built on corruption. There were bribes and convictions - people are going to jail. Yet it continues to spew poison that wafts throughout our area and accelerates global warming. RocklandCAN will support the intrepid activists who have battled this plant for years by joining them at this protest. This plant can still be shut down if we keep up the fight! Please join us - the protest is only 1 hour, and the total commitment is less than three hours including transportation, but the cause is critically important to our area and the planet.
Join our carpool from Rockland. Saturday, November 16th, 11am-12 noon RSVP: jordan93016@icloud.com
Universal Health Care: RSVP: Picket the Health Insurance Profiteers!
Thursday, November 21, 2019
Join Campaign for NY Health in protesting the annual meeting of the New York Health Plan Association, the trade association/lobby group for the state’s private health insurers. NYHPA and their corporate allies have formed the misnamed “Realities of Single Payer Coalition” that’s desperately fighting a highly popular bill in the state legislature to guarantee publicly-funded healthcare for all (NY Health Act). Join us for a picket, speak out, and rally to tell them it is time for them to GO!
Let Gina know if you would like to go.
