COLLEGE DEMOCRATS PROTEST BUSH SOCIAL SECURITY AGENDA

Students rally against Vice President’s Town Hall Meeting Promoting Privatization

Georgia’s College Students will rally together at Campbell High School to protest against the Bush Social Security reforms on May 2^nd,. 2005.

Vice President Cheney will be holding a town hall meeting at Campbell High School to promote the Bush plan to privatize social security. Students from around the state of Georgia will be at Campbell High School to let the Vice President know that they are against the plan to dismantle social security.

“ We must keep the promises guaranteed to our parents and grandparents and ensure that there is stability for our own retirement,” says College Democrats of Georgia President, Javier Brown. “ Americans have spoken and do not want this reckless plan that will skyrocket the already horrible budget deficit.”

Students from across the state, along with other organizations will stand together to tell the Bush Administration “No” on Monday at 10:30 AM.

College Democrats of Georgia is the local state federation of the College Democrats of America. The College Democrats of America (CDA) is the official student outreach arm of the Democratic Party. It aims to train and engage new generations of Democratic activists and shape the Democratic Party with voices from America's youth. In election years, College Democrats work hard to mobilize student voters and recruit volunteers for Democratic campaigns, from town council to President of the United States.
