[HCCN] REMINDER: Maine War Tax Resisters Workshop and planning, Feb. 12, 10 AM-3 PM in Augusta

[Larry Dansinger]

Please pass along to others in your group or area. Thanks.
Dear War Tax Resisters and War Tax Resistance Supporters in Maine,

You are invited to attend the annual Maine statewide workshop and  
gathering of war tax resisters and supporters on Saturday, February  
12th, 2011, at the Maine Equal Justice Project office, 126 Sewall  
St., Augusta, Maine.  In case of bad weather on February 12th, call  
525-7776 before 7:30 am or, preferably, the previous evening to see  
if the meeting is postponed to the snow date of February 13th, same  
time and place. Whether you are interested in beginning war tax  
resistance, have been or are a resister, or want to learn more about  
how to do it, this meeting will provide information and help you  
decide what new directions and actions you can take.

The morning session (10 AM-noon) will have two concurrent workshops,  
one for people new to war tax resistance, those considering it, and  
those just wanting more information, and one for more experienced  
resisters.
Lunch will follow from 12-1 (bring food to share for a potluck,  
kitchen not available, so don't expect a stove to heat food up).
The afternoon session (1-3 PM) will primarily focus on Tax Day  
activities on or before April 15 and how to promote WTR in this  
atmosphere of endless war. We will also discuss connections to  
national WTR campaigns and to Maine’s Bring Our War $$ Home campaign.

If you cannot attend this meeting but want to support war tax  
resistance work in Maine, or if you want more information on the how- 
to's or rewards and possible consequences of war tax resistance,  
contact Larry Dansinger at the Resource Center.  Also, please let  
Larry know if you DO NOT want to continue to receive WTR e/mailings.

The Maine WTR Resource Center needs financial support to continue its  
work. Please send contributions to:
