FYI.  You should be able to link directly to the files on the homepage now instead of sending files around, if the downloading is set up properly.

Having a link to a web site page (even with just files on it) would be better than sending files around.  My antivirus is fairly good, but others' not so much.

This is a “heads up” about coming Foreclosure Town Halls (FTH) sponsored by Home Owners For Justice in partnership with local non-profits around the country.  

Please forward this email to everyone you know.

The official Foreclosure Town Hall Press Release is attached for your information and we’d appreciate your forwarding to all media.  The release includes 20 California County Foreclosure maps.  Also attached is a public service radio announcement, and the link for TV announcements:  http://youtu.be/Kd42AS45cRc

These first public service announcements are generic – no specific date, place or time.  As you generate interest and get an FTH scheduled in your area, I will change the ads for your area and send new ads to reflect the date, time, and location for the FTH in your area.

Next week, 10/2, we will do another press release and new public service radio and tv announcements.  The next press release will focus on the FTH Presentation Participants* and elected officials expected to attend the first FTH in San Bernardino, Oct 13th, 1-4p.  It would be fabulous to have other FTH’s in other areas scheduled prior to next week’s release so those dates and times could be included.  (* Public Banking Institute, Mortgage Resolution Partners invited not yet confirmed, others yet to be determined)

Please forward these press releases to every print publication, radio and TV station in your area tomorrow, Tuesday 9/25, or as soon as possible.  We need to blanket the media with these coming events.  It is imperative the public know about the Foreclosure Solutions being presented at the Town Halls and that elected officials attend to learn, ask questions, and get answers.

OTHER ACTIVIST SUGGESTIONS
Interview and video tape elected officials asking them if they could be counted on to attend a Foreclosure Town Hall in your area if you got one scheduled, and if they would like to hear solutions to the foreclosure crisis that they could use for their county.

Call every radio and tv station in your area and insist they publicize the public service announcement for free – we’re non-profit, and partner with non-profits everywhere, and our communities and elected officials desperately need this information and help.

Contact the League of Women voters in your area to solicit their support:  http://www.lwv.org/get-involved/local-leagues/California

Contact the ACCE office in your area to solicit their support:  http://www.calorganize.org/contact

Contact any organization on the list below ** in your area.  These organizations all signed a March 15th 2012 letter to Demarco demanding FHFA foreclosure policy changes – and got nothing.  They will definitely be supportive of this effort.

Find a place to hold an FTH and call CJ to get it on the calendar so it can be publicized. 

Thanks - and may the Force be with us.   cj
