W4EJ Vote at City Hall
Monday, July 24, 9am
Please show up or call to support the resolution
This is directly related to our July 350MKE meeting!
On July 24, 2023, at 9am at Milwaukee City Hall in RM 301 B the Judiciary and Legislation Committee will hear about Alderman Bauman's proposal to ask Kaul to file a lawsuit against the fossil fuel industry.
Please call your alderman and or show up to support this resolution.
It will be an important way to have the fossil fuel industry to help clean up brown areas, do research on alternative energy sources, provide economic justice as this creates new jobs and helps us reduce our carbon footprint.
Don't come alone.....Bring your friends. This is for our families and the next 7 generations. Thank you.

350MKE Fridays for Future
Fridays from 12:00 - 1:00 pm
Chase & Wells Fargo Banks
Many banks (including Chase and Wells Fargo) are lending their depositor's money to fossil fuel companies to develop new fossil fuel production.
We want more people to be aware of this and hopefully change their bank or talk to the bank management!
We get honks and thumbs up from drivers and passersby. Some people stop and have a chat about what the banks are doing, or ask, "What is fossil fuel?"
We're alternating between two Chase Bank locations.
Chase Bank Calendar:
We have signs, or bring your own!
Masks and Physical Distancing as appropriate
No protest Below 25F, Above 85F, Winter Advisory, Wet snow/rain (paper signs), AQI > 80
