Woodbury City Council May Ban Residential Picketing at Wednesday Meeting
On Wednesday, April 22, the Woodbury city council is expected to vote, and
pass, an ordinance banning residential picketing in the city of Woodbury.
This ordinance is being proposed in response to a half dozen pickets that
happened at the homes of 3M executives this past summer because of 3M's
connection to an animal testing company called Huntingdon Life Sciences.
The police themselves have stated that no laws were broken, the protesters
were peaceful, and the protesters even cooperated with the police when
asked to leave.
Please come out and help prevent another attack on citizens' first
amendment rights. A carpool will be leaving the Walker Church at 6:30
SHARP to be at the city council meeting (8301 Valley Creek Road) by 7:30.
If you have a car, please bring it with because it is likely we won't have
enough cars.
--
If you're not able to make it to the meeting, or even if you are, please
call the Woodbury city council and voice your opposition on Wednesday, April
11 BEFORE 4:00PM.
