News Sisters of the Road Launches Anti Sit/Lie Postcard Campaign

Posted by Matt Davis on Fri, May 23 at 2:35 PM

Homeless nonprofit Sisters of the Road has launched a postcard campaign to repeal the controversial sit/lie ordinance and anti-camping law, following its resignation from the mayor’s Street Access For Everyone committee two weeks ago.

The postcard asks the Mayor and City Commissioners to repeal these laws with a space at the bottom for people to sign and print their name. Within 2-3 weeks, Sisters wants to have collected enough to assemble in a way that creates “a powerful visual image, and march the cards from Sisters to City Hall.” Here’s the postcard, front and back, that you could print out, fold over, stick a stamp on, and send over there. If you were so inclined.

Doesn't it say Street Roots on the postcard as well? I think it's Sisters Of The Road and Street Roots launch campaign.

Yep.

How fitting that they even want the taxpayers to foot the bill for their postcard stamps.

Here's a carbon neutral response:

No.

For the benefit of those much less informed, please El, educate the rest of us on how Sisters and street roots are asking "...the taxpayers to foot the bill for their postcard stamps...."

All carbon related comments aside, you're a moron.
