SEND A MESSAGE TO GEORGE BUSH
THIS MONDAY, DEC. 1 -- EAST HANOVER, NJ

THEIR RELIGION -- OUR MONEY -- NO WAY!

President George Bush is coming to East Hanover (Whippany), NJ this Monday, December 1 for a $2,000/person fundraiser. Many groups will be speaking out -- and American Atheists will be hosting a demonstration contingent to voice our opposition to the federal faith-based initiative.

Update: click here for photos and a report by Joe Zamecki.

Even though Bush supporters can shove out $2,000 for a lunch, and the churches have special privileges and tax exemptions, the White House wants US to pay for religion-based social programs. AMERICAN ATHEISTS says: "No Way!"

Join us this Monday, December 1, 2003 outside the Hanover Marriott hotel beginning at 3:30 as we protest George Bush's federal faith-based "religion tax"! Look for American Atheists signs and banners.

  • DRESS APPROPRIATELY, for the cooler weather. The forecast is for mostly sunny skies, slightly windy with the high around 55-degrees. We suggest that you wear a hat, gloves and warm socks, though.

  • The Marriott is conveniently located off Route I-287 on Route 10. Mapquest Map - click here.

  • No parking is permitted at the Marriott Hotel or on Ridgedale Avenue. However, parking is allowed at the PNC Bank located at 2 Ridgedale Avenue. Once parked, you can walk on a pathway toward Route 10. Parking is also permitted along Wing Road. Please allow sufficient time to reach the demonstration site and find suitable parking. And watch this web site for updates.
