CINCINNATIANS FOR PROGRESS HOST “RALLY FOR PROGRESS”

CINCINNATIANS FOR PROGRESS HOST “RALLY FOR PROGRESS”
Grassroots support builds to oppose the Anti-Progress Charter Amendment

Cincinnati, OH - Cincinnatians for Progress is hosting a “Rally for Progress” on Thursday, June 11^th from 5:30pm-8:30pm at the Verdin Bell Center (444 Reading Avenue). The minimum donation to attend is $35, or $15 for students. Jake Speed and the Freddies will perform at the event.

Cincinnatians for Progress is coordinating the campaign against the dangerous Anti-Progress Charter Amendment that would stop the City from supporting all forms of passenger rail in the city, including President Obama's plan to build high speed rail connecting Cincinnati with Chicago and Cleveland.

This event builds on the growing grassroots momentum building for Cincinnatians for Progress. Since our launch on March 25^th to a standing room only crowd of over 250, Cincinnatians for Progress has grown to 2,000 members, launched our website, raised over $80,000 in mostly small donations, secured the endorsements of Mayor Mark Mallory and 8 of 9 City Council Members.

The “Rally for Progress” is being hosted by 101 Cincinnatians from across the city. Attendees can donate and RSVP for the event at www.cincinnatiansforprogress.com or at the door at the event.
