On December 12, 2011 at 12 noon, we need YOU

to RALLY with us at the Minnesota State Capitol in the Rotunda.

 

Together, we will raise our voices to tell the MN State Board of Investment:

Stop funding Israeli occupation and apartheid: Divest from Israel Bonds NOW!

Speakers will include co-plaintiffs from the MN BBC lawsuit against the SBI.

 

Following the Rally, help us pack the room at the SBI’s Meeting

at 1:00 pm in Room 123 of the State Capitol Building

to show the Board Members how many Minnesotans support divestment!

 

Note: Signs on sticks are not permitted in the capitol building.

So invite your family and friends and we’ll see you there!

Additional Information: Last Tuesday, November 29, 2011, MN BBC served a lawsuit on the Minnesota State Board of Investment (SBI) seeking an order from the court directing the SBI to immediately divest from Israel Bonds and to refrain from purchasing more. This Rally is an opportunity to show the SBI that there is strong public support for them to do the right thing and divest, which is why your presence is so important! For more information about the lawsuit, or to learn how you can support MN BBC, visit mn.breakthebonds.org or e-mail or call us anytime at mn@breakthebonds.org or 616.745.6810. Thank you.
