BREAKING! Soc.Sec. Censorship at FDR Library
Fri Apr 01, 2005 at 02:05:32 PM PDT
I'm posting this for Joe since he just created a new account!
This is my first diary. I wanted to make everyone aware of a situation that is occurring in Dutchess County, New York. My name is Joseph Ruggiero, I am the Dutchess County Democratic Committee Chairman and Town Supervisor of the Town of Wappinger.
I am outraged that the Bush Administration is censoring a forum on Social Security sponsored by the American Association of University Women (AAUW), Older Women's League (OWL), and League of Women Voters (LWV). The forum was scheduled to be held Saturday, April 9, from 1 pm to 4 pm at the Wallace Center located on the FDR site in Hyde Park, New York (Dutchess County).
