Mayoral Candidate Josh Pollock Calls For Local Protest Against President Bush's Attack on Reproductive Freedom

Pittsburgh-  Last Saturday 18 year old mayoral candidate Josh Pollock joined the protest of the inauguration of George W. Bush in downtown Pittsburgh.  This Saturday (January 27th) he hopes to bring everyone back and grow the crowd in protest of Bush and his recent announcement of new policy that will not allow humanitarian aid missions that provide health services and receive federal funding to even discuss abortion with patients.

    "These new rules may only apply to humanitarian missions, which is bad, but we must fear it is just the beginning." Pollock said.  "I'm not going to sit here and watch it happen, we need to send a message to Bush Jr. that this is not acceptable and send a message to people in other cities to do the same.  Roe v. Wade did not come out of a vacuum, it came from a movement and that movement needs to reassert itself big time or we can watch Bush erode abortion rights and then other rights."

    The protest will come one week after the last one ended and will be at the same place.  That is the Federal Building downtown at 12:30PM, Saturday, January 27th.

"Its estimated since the time of my youth, depression among children has increased by 1000% and teen suicide by 300%. Since 1997 classroom-assassins have killed two in Mississippi, three in Kentucky, five in Arkansas, and thirteen in Colorado. Make a graph of these numbers and watch them go exponential in years to come - unless we start giving our kids a new way to go and some real hope for the future."    - Daniel Quinn
