Hey Guilders,

Anyone looking to engage in historic direct action campaign? PUSH is organizing buses to Albany next Wednesday - read all about it below.

Momentum is building - be part of the movement and do something which, I can almost guarantee you, is more interesting then a day at law school! No knock on law school (I liked it) but you know what I mean. They'll be there and back in 24 hours.

To get on the bus or ask questions email Sara at sa...@pushbuffalo.org

Hi PUSH Members, Allies, Partners and Friends,

As some of you may know, we have an opportunity to be leaders of a historic moment for our movement next week in Albany. Community Organizations, Students, Workers, and fed up people from across the state will be descending on the Capitol Building in Albany this Wednesday! The plan is to enter the capitol in the afternoon, stay past close of business and then keep staying overnight!

There have been weekly mobilizations at the capitol disrupting business as usual for the past month! The general message is that the state government needs to put people first, make millionaires pay their fare share, and not balance the budget on poor people's backs. PUSH members have led two mobilizations since January. On Wednesday, organizers are expecting over 1,000 people spending the night in the capitol.

If there is any way you or your network can be a part of history on Wednesday, please rise to the occasion. We are coordinating transportation and food through Citizen Action of New York.

E-mail or Call with questions! This is a moment that we can't miss!
