<p><span><span><b>When:</b> Thursday, March 15, 2012, 11:00 am to 1:00 pm<br></span></span><span><span><b>Where: </b>State House steps • 24 Beacon St. • Park St T • Boston</span></span></p>

<div>
<p>A statewide network of community organizations and supporters will be holding a major demonstration and lobby day in opposition to the 3-strikes bill being considered at the State House. </p>
</div>
<p>The rally will highlight a diverse group of speakers who will warn of the economic and social consequences of these regressive criminal justice policies.</p>
<p>The Rally and speaking portion will run between 11-12pm. Between 12-1pm, participants will visit the offices of legislators and deliver signed advocacy cards. </p>
<p>The goal for the action is to show the breadth of opposition to the misguided policies and add power and media attention to the resistance effort.</p>
