San Francisco will be the West Coast march on October 25. Buses and vans are being organized from Los Angeles, San Diego, Santa Barbara and as far away as Seattle, Washington and Tucson, Arizona. The S.F. march is being co-sponsored by the Not In Our Name Project, Bay Area United Against War, Vanguard Foundation and ANSWER, and has been endorsed by hundreds of organizations and individuals, including Bay Area United for Peace & Justice, the San Francisco Labor Council, Bishop Thomas Gumbleton, Ramsey Clark, Veterans for Peace, and many others.

Hon. Cynthia McKinney, former Congresswoman
Fernando Suarez del Solar, father of Marine killed in Iraq

Rock band Los Mocosos and others

President Bush wants $87 billion more for war in Iraq and Afghanistan.That’s $238 million per day or $10 million every hour! Remember these numbers when they say there is no money for education and healthcare and libraries, firehouses, childcare or other vital social services.
