Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace

The Iraq Summer Campaign comes to Brighton Thursday (July 26, 2007) and if you're against the Iraq War, it's time to speak up and let Republican Rep. Mike Rogers of Brighton now how you feel.

Mike Webb and Jake Coffey, field organizers for Americans Against Escalation in Iraq, will be at the Brighton Mill Pond Park in the 100 block of West Main Street in Brighton, at 12:15 p.m.

"We need your help!" said Webb. "We'll be passing out yard signs and other
materials, playing music and engaging as many people as we possibly
can."

Webb and Coffey also will have a video camera set up that will allow Brighton residents to record 30-second personal messages telling Rogers how they feel about the war. The messages will be compiled into a compact disc and given to Mike Rogers at the end of the summer. People also will be able to pick up yard signs reading "Support the Troops, End the War," as well as bumper stickers and lapel stickers.

"This is an opportunity for Brighton residents to show that they do not support
Bush's failed policy in Iraq and will not support Mike Rogers if he
continues to ignore their pleas for a responsible end to the war which
has cost over 3,620 U.S. lives and over $442 billion," Webb said.

Those planning to attend are asked to RSVP to michigan7@iraqsummer.org
