Maria Cantwell needs to know - Students and workers will die in Oaxaca if she does nothing

Urgent Action Alert! Call these phone numbers and call your legislators about the imminent death of our companeros to the South. There are Americans down there who are living and working with these poor people!

Here's the latest:

Priistas are planning to remove CIPO out of the neighborhood by force!

This part of Santa Lucia is enemy territory. It is near Barricade Three, the Príista attack of last Friday, and the site of Brad Will's murder. It's also where the CIPO house is located. When the Príistas first set up their barricades, some were directly in front of the CIPO house, one using materials that had been propped up against the outside wall. Now, less than a week after Brad Will's murder, some of the same Príistas have agreed to "dislodge" CIPO from the neighborhood. If history, recent and distant, teaches us anything, their method will be violence. It is important that they know that acts of violence will not go unseen, even in this small neighborhood that they control. Please contact some or all of those listed below; tell them that if CIPO is attacked, that the Mexican state is responsible. And please also keep this in mind as solidarity actions are planned and carried out.
