TODAY: International Day to Abolish the Death Penalty

Monday, March 1 is the International Day to Abolish the Death Penalty. The Coalition of Arizonans to Abolish the Death Penalty (CAADP) will hold banners and placards, at a busy intersection, at Speedway and Euclid in Tucson, from 5pm til 5:45pm, to let commuters know that the death penalty is opposed.

This will be followed, at First Christian Church [on that same corner] by a potluck where advocates can meet informally, and then, at 6:45 pm, a follow-up meeting will be held.


Please let Claudia Ellquist, Executive Director of CAADP know, at 520.622.3339 if you will be able to attend, or to send a representative from your organization.
