Message from your Public Policy chair, Faye Marcus

To all AAUW members:
 
ERA has passed in the Illinois State Senate.  The next step is for SJRCA4 to go to the Illinois State House!  We could be the 37th state to ratify the ERA!   Are you an advocate for women and girls? Please join me and attend the ERA RALLY  in SPRINGFIELD,  TUESDAY MAY 8.

There are only 57 seats available . The cost is $27 roundtrip for a comfortable air conditioned Van Galder bus.  Your RSVP is needed by Thursday @ noon.  Money is due by Monday @noon.
