Statement by the Coalition Against NATO/G8 War & Poverty Agenda (CANG8) and Occupy Chicago Re: G8 Moving to Camp David

CHICAGO—(ENEWSPF)—March 8 , 2012.  The G8 moving to Camp David represents a major victory for the people of Chicago. The leaders of the 1% are moving because of the overwhelming resistance to the NATO/G8 war and poverty agenda in Chicago. Our city is filled with tens of thousands of people who are struggling to keep their heads above water, fighting against the effects of the economic crisis caused by the leaders who would have been gathering here. The communities of Chicago are fighting to save their schools, keep healthcare available, and to defend their jobs from cutbacks that are a hallmark of the governments of the G8.
