Subject: Sunrise Powerlink ACTION
ALERT
It's ALL HANDS ON DECK for a protest against SDG&E's
phony-baloney "groundbreaking" ceremony for the Sunrise Powerlink on Thursday,
December 9th! Despite the fact that there are currently 3 active lawsuits
against the Sunrise Powerlink in courts, SDG&E has scheduled a premature
groundbreaking ceremony. The Protect Our Communities Foundation and partners are
organizing a rally and protest against the project during the event. Media will
be present and Governor Schwarzenegger is expected to attend SDG&E's event.
So we need a LARGE CROWD, WITH SIGNS, to show the world that the powerlink is
old fossil-fuel infrastructure at its worst, that the project is not acceptable
to the citizens of San Diego county, and most of all that the powerlink is not a
done deal. PLEASE JOIN US!
