Today at NOON:  "Rally for the Other 98% and to Oppose Budget Cuts"

12-12:30PM

In front of Congressman Hinchey's office

291 Wall Street, Kingston

A rally to oppose the proposed budget cuts that will hurt the middle class and poor, while showering billions in subsidies to oil companies and other corporations. Proposed cuts would slash funding for food aid for needy women, children and infants, home heating assistance for the elderly, green jobs, job training and much more. Congressman Hinchey has spoken out on his opposition to the cuts [Hinchey video posted below...] and we have invited him to say a few words at our rally and to thank him for staying strong for hard working American families. This rally is being organized by the Ulster County MoveOn Council. For more information, or if you have a story to share..." [Copied and Pasted From My Email...]
