Proposal: General Assembly and DA Schedule
The Occupy Port Townsend General Assembly will be 5:30pm to 6:30 pm every Weds night at Aldriches (upstairs). The General Assembly will be immediately followed by a Direct Action Working Group meeting if time allows. No other General Assembly will be on the schedule. General Assemblies may be very brief depending upon business. We will reassess this new schedule in 3 months.

Fellowship Hall Oct. 8th 6:30-9.
Do corporate ”rights” trump the rights of citizens? Are we, the people, the primary constituents of those we elect, or are corporations? Paul Cienfuegos, organizer and educator in Portland, Oregon, understands that almost every community issue he’s worked on over the past 30 years emerged as a symptom ofcorporate rule. He now engages in theCommunity Rights movement which, through authentic local democracy, establishes legally-binding laws banning harmful corporate activities.
Paul will be at the QUUF on Monday, October 8th at 7:00 pm to lead a workshop on how we can harness the efforts of diverse groups of local citizens to pass legislation protecting the health and wellbeing of our community and its environment. In this, we would join 140 towns in 8 states which have enacted laws placing Community Rights before corporate rights. Join in. $10 suggested donation
