Novartis Knock Down Day
Novartis Knock Down Day is a call for actions against Novartis on Monday, October 27th for being one of Huntingdon Life Sciences’ (HLS’s) largest customers. Without customers of Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS) there simply would be no Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS). The customers pay Huntingdon to test products and carry out research. If Huntingdon lost all their customers then they would have no income and be forced to close. There are only ten companies which give Huntingdon Life Sciences 45% of their income; these include Novartis, GlaxoSmithKline, and Bristol-Myers Squibb. Monday, October 27th is Novartis’ day.

IOW Request for Entrance to the VP Debate
St. Louis Instead of War Coalition
438 N. Skinker Blvd.
St. Louis, MO 63130
October 2, 2008
Janet H. Brown
Executive Director
Commission on Presidential Debates
Dear Ms. Brown:
The St. Louis Instead of War Coalition requests that the four St. Louis Citizens listed below be granted entrance into the Debate this evening at Washington University. As the descriptions below indicate, each of these people’s lives has been profoundly impacted by U.S. policies that divert resources away from the needs of our people to wars and military occupations.
Take Back the Debate!
The Vice Presidential debate will be Thursday, October 2 at Washington University. Come join us as we highlight the lack of real solutions to people's needs, and the denial of citizen access to the debate.
We will hold a short rally where we will hear the stories of six families who are facing real dilemmas as a result of United States government policies. We will hear from an Iraq veteran, a Gold Star father, an Iraq war refugee, a foreclosed homeowner, a person suffering from lack of healthcare and a local school board member. Then join us for a Real Issues March to the Vice Presidential Debate, where we will request entrance for these families to have their voices heard.
