Dear Daniel,

Occupy Spring is starting on Saturday. Chicago Mayor Emanuel and the Chicago police must respect our first amendment rights to peaceful assembly if Chicago is to be a world class democracy. However, the police department is arming for control and has given no information about plans to respect the democratic rights of protesters.

We are asking Mayor Emanuel to respect the rights of protesters to the freedom of peaceful assembly. We request that the guidelines recommended by UN Human Rights Special Rapporteur, Mr. Maina Kiai, be followed in Chicago. 

Please sign and pass along this request to Mayor Emanuel: Protect Our First Amendment Rights, show Chicago can be a World Class Democracy http://signon.org/sign/chicago-world-class-democrac-1?source=s.em.cr&r_by=1415825&mailing_id=3166

Thank you,

Nancy Wade
Organizer
First Amendment Freedom in Chicago
