While in Richmond, you are encouraged to meet with your state elected officials to urge them to keep the ban on uranium mining in Virginia -- permanently.
MEETING WITH DELEGATE CHRIS HEAD
We got an appointment with Delegate Chris Head for Monday, Jan. 23 at 10:45 a.m. We would like to organize one or two carloads of people from Mr. Head's district in the Roanoke area to meet with him.
MEETING WITH ANOTHER DELEGATE OR SENATOR
If you are not in Mr. Head's district but would like to attend on the 23rd, you are encouraged to make an appointment with your senator or delegate as soon as possible and carpool with us.
BE THE YELLOWCAKE
Or, you can simply come to Richmond and participate in the Keep the Ban demonstration that is scheduled to occur outside the General Assembly Building at around 11:30 a.m. on the 23rd. If you plan to participate in the demonstration, please wear a yellow scarf or bring/wear something big and yellow.
We want to remind our elected officials of a big pile of yellowcake!
