[SDCPJ] Tunis, Cairo, now Madison WI; next: SAN DIEGO

Across the world, the sheer force of people, in non-violent but insistent demonstration, is showing that change IS possible.  Change for good - change for the needs of common people, and change away from concentrated power, greed and profit at the cost of lives and the public pocketbook.    Now, it is San Diego's turn.  Come out in boisterous demonstration-celebration, to Balboa Park, Saturday March 19.  Save the date, plan to be there!    Only public pressure can force the US to avoid its own disaster.  Yes to an American republic, NO to the disastrous US empire.  See attached – pass this on – come out on March 19, have fun, make noise and make your voice heard.  YOU have the power to force change.   More information to come.

[SDCPJ] SB 251: New bill linking draft registration to California drivers' licenses

A new bill, Senate Bill 251, has been introduced in the California state legislature that would make registration for any future draft automatic when males between the ages of 18 and 26 apply for a driver's license or license renewal (full text below).

 

As of February 18, the bill had only been referred to the senate rules committee for possible assignment to policy committees. You can follow the bill and subscribe for email alerts whenever any action occurs at:

http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/cgi-bin/postquery?bill_number=sb_251&sess=CUR&house=B&author=correa

 

This is the fifth time that supporters of the Selective Service System, the agency responsible for operating any future draft, have attempted to get such a bill through the California legislature. Organized opposition succeeded in preventing the previous bills (in 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2007) from receiving final floor votes. California is among about a dozen states that have not passed bills linking draft registration to drivers' licenses. Because of its large population and very low registration compliance rate, California probably has the largest number of nonregistrants in the nation, so this bill is must be high on the list of priorities for the Selective Service System.

 

For future alerts and information on how you can help defeat this bill, contact: Committee Opposed to Militarism and the Draft (COMD), comdsd@aol.com, 760-753-7518, www.comdsd.org.

 

 

BILL NUMBER: SB 251 INTRODUCED
BILL TEXT


INTRODUCED BY   Senator Correa

                        FEBRUARY 10, 2011

   An act to add Section 12801.3 to the Vehicle Code, relating to
vehicles.



LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 251, as introduced, Correa. Vehicles: driver's license:
selective service.
   Existing law establishes the practices and procedures for the
issuance of an original or a renewal of a driver's license.
   The federal Military Selective Service Act (federal act) requires
specified persons to register with the federal Selective Service
System.
   This bill would provide that, by submitting an application for an
original or a renewal of a driver's license, a person who is required
to register pursuant to the federal act is consenting to that person'
s registration with the federal Selective Service System. The bill
would require the department to forward to the federal Selective
Service System, in an electronic format, the necessary personal
information for the registration of that person in compliance with
the federal act.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  The Legislature finds and declares all of the
following:
   (a) California has one of the lowest Selective Service System
registration compliance rates in the nation.
   (b) Males who are between 18 and 26 years of age who fail to
register with the Selective Service System, as required by federal
law, face possible federal penalties and loss of federal benefits,
including student financial assistance, federal employment, such as
employment with the United States Postal Service, job training under
the Workforce Investment Act (28 U.S.C. Sec. 2801 et seq.), and
citizenship for immigrants.
   (c) The failure of young men to register with the Selective
Service System has resulted in the lifetime loss of over $100,000,000
in potential benefits over the last three years for young men in
California.
   (d) At least 37 states, three territories, and the District of
Columbia have enacted legislation related to the issuance of a driver'
s license in support of the Selective Service System registration.
   (e) To promote the fairness and equity of any future draft, to
ensure that important benefits associated with the registration
requirement are not lost, and to promote compliance with federal law,
the driver's license application process should be revised so that
every male applicant for an original driver's license or renewal who
is between 18 and 26 years of age consents to his registration with
the Selective Service System, as required by federal law.
  SEC. 2.  Section 12801.3 is added to the Vehicle Code, to read:
   12801.3.  (a) Notwithstanding any other law, a person who is
required to be registered with the federal Selective Service System
pursuant to the federal Military Selective Service Act (50 U.S.C.
App. Sec. 451 et seq.) and who submits an application for an original
or a renewal of a driver's license is deemed to have consented to
registration with the federal Selective Service System.
   (b) The submission of an application for an original or a renewal
of a driver's license by a person specified in subdivision (a) shall
establish a conclusive presumption that the person has done either of
the following:
   (1) Registered with the federal Selective Service System in
compliance with the federal Military Selective Service Act.
   (2) Authorized the department to forward to the federal Selective
Service System the necessary information for the Selective Service
System registration when that person is required to register under
the federal Military Selective Service Act.
   (c) The department shall require an application for an original or
a renewal of a driver's license to include a notice indicating the
following:

   "By submitting this application, I am consenting to registration
with the Selective Service System, if required by federal law. If I
am under 18 years of age, I understand that I will be registered upon
reaching 18 years of age."

   (d) The department shall forward to the federal Selective Service
System, in an electronic format, the necessary personal information
required for the registration of a person specified in subdivision
(a).

[SDCPJ] Flier to monitor new recruiter access policy

It's urgent that we monitor the new recruiter access policy in San Diego K-12 schools. We strongly suspect that many school principals, counselors and teachers are not yet following the policy, so we need your help.

 

Attached is the flier developed by the Education Not Arms Coalition to let students, parents and teachers know what to look for to determine if schools are enforcing the policy. Please circulate it to everyone who might be in a position to let us know about recruiter activities. Contact ENAC at educationnotarms@gmail.com, or go to  www.facebook.com/educationnotarms, where you can upload photos taken of recruiters in schools.

 

We are also planning to meet with the deputy superintendent and ask her about implementation of the policy.

 

For more information on ENAC's successful campaign to get this policy passed, go to: www.projectyano.org/educationnotarms. Also, you can read an article about it at: http://comdsd.org/article_archive/ParadigmShift1-25-2011.html.

 

Thank you.

I used to watch it and will resume doing so. They used to have short news/culture segments hosted by hip 20-somethings. But it's changed to about 6 (often repeated) programs of 30-90 minutes. Airing right now is "Cooking in the Danger Zone" (intrepid host cooks in war zones as viewers learn about cuisines/cultures around the world, today it's Thai/Burma border). Another show is "Kill It Cook It Eat It". And there's a serious news magazine show "Vanguard" and several law enforcement shows.

[SDCPJ] Cultivating Compassion. A Weekend Compassionate Communication Practice Gathering. March 4-6

CULTIVATING COMPASSION

A Weekend Compassionate Communication Practice Gathering.

Private home in Encinitas

 

When: March 4-6 (Friday 6pm-9pm, Saturday and Sunday 10am-6pm)

 

We live in a time of breathtaking change. The old ways of being and doing are working less and less and the new ways of living and creating are only emerging. How to be, how to show up in this transition period can be bewildering. Fortunately, many of us do remember that when things get difficult we can enter strength by opening the heart, letting it just crack open. This weekend will be

 devoted to precisely that!

 

Come experience support, companionship, self-expression, inspiration, learning, and growth as we ask ourselves...

. When it comes to living daily from compassion, what has most life for me?
. What are my challenges? Where am I getting stuck?

. Where in my life am I unwilling to practice Compassionate Communication?

. What are my blindspots?
. Where might I want to request empathy?

. Where in my life do I need healing?
. What do I know about living from the heart?

[SDCPJ] Produce programs for Labor Link TV?

Sisters and Brothers,

A union brother here, Gene, has started working on a new program for LLTV

Labor Link TV has been cablecasting programs for, by and about the labor  movement in San Diego County since January 1988 on three cable stations.  Much of our programming has been produced locally by myself with some union members and also by students.  A fair amount comes from other groups like LLTV around the USA which also show on Public Access channels.

In the last few years, my own time and energy has not been up to producing much new programming and only a few others have provided any here.

What LLTV is looking for is one or a few pro-union people who would love to get involved in producing programming.  And/or many of us do own video cameras and a few of us can edit video on our computers; we can produce labor programming that way and I can show it on Cox, Time Warner and Del Mar.  LLTV has access to thousands of homes in San Diego County and has been shown on other programs around the country.  Even if you have no experience with video nor equipment, but interest, you can get involved.

If you are interested or have a friend or relative who is, get in touch with Gene: chavira@cox.net

Though it would be great (and was the original idea) to form a group of us to work on programs over time, almost any level of commitment can help.  I will be happy to organize a meeting with those who respond and discuss how LLTV works.

Solidarity,

Fred
