[Carolina 1961]

** Sadly, Congressman Hare will be *unable* to join us, as Congress will
unexpectedly still be in session

*The Fair Trade Future Forum in the Quad Cities!**  *
*Thursday December 20th at 6:30pm - *Steelworkers Hall - 880 Devil's Glen -
Bettendorf

With so much at stake for working people in Iowa's upcoming,
first-in-the-nation caucuses on January 3rd, it a wonder more presidential
candidates haven't fully released their plans for one of the most important
issues to caucus-goers: Fair Trade & Keeping America Strong in the Global
Economy.  Come learn more about one of the crucial issues that will decide
not only the Iowa Caucuses, but the November 2008 general election.

*~ Office of Congressman Phil Hare* (Surrogate on his behalf) tells about
the fight for Fair Trade in in the U.S. House of Representatives.

*~ Keep the Holidays Lead-Free!* - United Steelworkers demo their Test Kit
to keep you and yours safe from toxic toys and other potentially tainted
imports. The results may shock you!

*~ Progressive Action for the Common Good* - Updates on Corporate Reform
Forum and the Fight to Put People before Profit, Curb Corporate Power and
Retain Local Democracy.

*~ Fair Trade 101* - The Iowa Fair Trade Campaign dissects the unfair
corporate trade deals like NAFTA and the WTO that send Iowa's good jobs
away, tip the balance against our family farmers, damage our environment and
maintain poverty in the developing world.  We'll see what we can do right
now to fight back for Fair Trade.
