Friends---

The Texas Democrats For Life are holding their state convention the
weekend of June 6-7.  You can visit their website at:
http://www.io.com/ctdfl/    (At the very bottom of the information is a
separate website, for Democrats For Life of Texas:
  http://www.sdgeagle.com/demolife.htm

The meeting will be in Austin, at:
Our Ladys Maronite Catholic Church, 1320 East 51st St. (From
I-35, take 51st St. Exit and go East 1.5 blocks. The church and school are
on the North side of the street.)

The TCADP has been invited to participate in a death penalty panel on
Saturday, June 7 (see below).

The organizer, Keith Sterzing, has sent me the following note:

Subject: Why Do We Kill People Bumper Sticker

Dr. Halperin--

I have seen a bumper sticker which reads, "Why do we kill people who
kill people to teach that killing people is wrong?  Perhaps you know of a
better one?  We would like to include one in the registration packages for
people attending the state convention of the Democrats For Life of Texas
on 6-7 June.  Do you know of a source for such a bumper sticker?  If
another organization (Amnesty?) wanted to fund it, it could even have
their name on it.  We would also like to have a death penalty handout (say
1-5 sheets of paper) to include in the registration pkgs.

If so, please have them contact me--H. Keith Sterzing, 1203 Paint Brush
Trail, Cedar Park, Texas  78613-6455; telephone 512-401-8392.

*****

He is also inviting other anti-dp organizations to participate via free
tabling....I would suggest that TCADP, TMN, and Amnesty participate in a
tabling effort....

Is there someone in Austin who would contact Keith, and be willing to be
our local point-person?  who might be willing to get him some dp fact
sheets, brochures, etc.?

Thanks!!

here's the description of the panel:

Saturday June 7, 2003:

11:00AM 12:00PM a.m. Status of the Death Penalty in Texas, the USA and the
World: Panel Chair Dr. Rick Halperin, former Amnesty International USA
Chair, and AIUSA Texas State Anti-Death Penalty Chair. Other Panel
members: David Atwood, Texas Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty
Cofounder, Pax Christi USA National Council Member, and "Balancing the
Scales" film producer, and Ms. Janet Monteros, Attorney experienced in
handling death penalty appellate cases.
