Land Grab of Veteran’s Administration Property in Brentwood?
from Carmen Ramirez
Steve and Carolyn Crandall will give us information about their efforts to organize a protest planned on August 16, 2009 at the VA site in Brentwood. They’ll tell us about the Vet’s Administration allowing a nearby homeowner’s association to pick up 16 acres of VA land without paying for it! Can this be true? Please come with your questions; let’s find out what is going on.

Immigration Reform and Your Community
from Gloria Romero
Beatriz Garcia, organizer with CAUSE (Central Coast Alliance United for A Sustainable Economy) in Oxnard will make a presentation at the July Good Club meeting about why our country needs Immigration Reform. Beatriz is an experienced organizer, raised in Oxnard, schooled at Stanford University, she has done organizing work in San Diego and now Oxnard and Ventura County; she was trained by the same community organization which trained Barack Obama in Chicago.
She’ll explain why it is economically and morally essential that Immigration Reform be enacted by the federal government soon, so that the workers and their families in our community can come out of the shadows into sunlight. Come with your questions and concerns.
