NEWS:

The Jill Stein event this last Monday was great!  It was nice to have
an in-depth 3-hour discussion of issues and politics with a
Presidential candidate before a packed house.  Thanks to the organizers
for making it happen and to UNITE HERE for allowing us use of the
space.

ENDORSEMENTS:

At our August monthly meeting, we endorsed NO on Prop A (health trust
fund modification), as well as NO on B and C (condos for
millionaires).  We endorsed YES on Prop D, a statement in favor of
cheaper prescription drugs.  We are writing longer statements about
all of these, which will be posted on our website.

We will be holding a candidate forum at our September meeting next
Wednesday evening (9/25, 7-9 pm).  We may make additional endorsements
in the District 4 (Sunset) Supervisor's race and citywide campaigns.
Our forum will take place in the Community Room at the
