Mailing about actions in the state legislature in Olympia. Senate Bill #3226 and House Bill #1992 to require divestment of Washington State monies from companies doing business in South Africa are both moving quickly through the various committees. The House bill is stronger, affecting $2 billion in state funds, while the Senate bill only affects about $11 million. The mailing asks people to call the legislative hotline in Olympia and urge your state senator and representatives to work for the strongest possible divestment bill. For more information about divestment and the anti-apartheid movement, call Marilyn Chase or Randy Carter at AFSC.
