Dear Friends, 50th year 716-332-3904; 716-931-3520 10/2/17
Apologies for another “Frequent Update” so immediately, but we needed to share:
*Deep condolences for all affected by the tragic mass shooting in Las Vegas. The grieving families and friends, the wounded, the many … the whole country again shocked and horrified. May the legislators uphold their responsibility to the country rather than cater to the NRA’s $$. Enough is enough – it is way past time to talk about it. We must DO something about it!!!
**Correction: Tom Porter – or Sakokwenionkwas – will speak 10/3 at the Tuscarora Nation House

Join us tomorrow at Indigenous Peoples Nuclear Free Future Day! Again – an inspired and inspiring event, and a wonderful opportunity to support both. Come from 3pm to dusk or any portion thereof, at the Buffalo History Museum (just north of the 198 at Elmwood Ave).
Also, it’s important to continue to STOP The Attempts to repeal and/or de-fund the Affordable Care Act (ACA, aka Obamacare)! See Weds 7-9pm Canvassing Training below.
FYI, the National Fuel Eminent Domain Case is being decided by the Judge. It was not an immediate ruling in favor of the Corporation as the other two case were, so -> there’s hope!!
