Welfare Rights Committee invites you come join the Celebration and our History of the Fighting Back!

CELEBRATE WRC’s 15 Year History of Fighting for Low-Income Families!

COME HEAR about WRC’s recent VICTORIES at State Capitol!

Where: Welfare Rights Committee Office at Sabathani Community Center
310 East 38th St, Minneapolis RM 207

When: Saturday, October 21, 2006
Time: 11am to 1 pm

Fifteen years ago, the Welfare Rights Committee started to defend the rights of poor families. The WRC, a committee of low income women and families, jumped into the trenches to fight back against the war on the poor. Since that day, the WRC has been on the front lines, fighting day and night to stop the attacks on welfare, health care and other programs for low income families. The WRC has had its own “Poor Peoples Bills” at the Capitol, has brought thousands of low income families to the Capitol to meet with politicians, testify at hearings, and to protest unjust laws. The WRC has won many important battles and will continue to fight back until every single cut to welfare and attack on the poor is ended!

You will hear and meet Great People! You will hear Great History stories! You will have Great Food! You will have a Great Time!

Call WRC at 612-822-8020 for information and reserve your stop for the celebration. See you all in October!
