Guest guest Posted November 26, 2003 Report Share Posted November 26, 2003 Greetings Fellow Vegetarians & Vegans, If you are interested in helping to get Green Party candidate Matt Gonzalez elected mayor of San Francisco, please email me privately at <editor. Matt Gonzalez authored legislation to codify the language of San Francisco so that those of us with companion animals can now consider ourselves guardians, not owners, of our furry friends. More recently, In Defense of Animals awarded Matt with a " Distinguished Guardian Award " at the organization's first annual banquet (Matt shared honors with other highly regarded " animal people " including Dr. Jane Goodall and Genesis Awards founder Gretchen Wyler). In short, Matt is an extremely animal-friendly politician, and he has also rec'd an " A+ " from the Sierra Club for his environmental work (his opponent for mayor rec'd a " D " ). I've formed an interest group " Vegetarians & Vegans for Gonzalez. " This is a loosely-nit group of supporters who would be willing to volunteer as much or as little time and effort as they feel comfortable in a myriad of ways to help get Matt elected. Some possible duties include volunteering for a day at the campaign office, donating (or cooking) veg food for the campaign volunteers, or hosting a house party to show the unified support of the veg community (and encourage other veggies to join in the fun). For additional information, my email address once again is <editor. I look forward to hearing from you. Please feel free to forward this email to other veggies in your circle who may be interested in helping get Matt elected. And remember, the person(s) need not live in San Francisco to volunteer or contribute to the campaign. " Brown out, Green in. " Happy Thanksgiving, ~ Joseph Connelly Editor, VegNews PS.
