PRESS INVITED

PLACE: Senator Specter's Philadelphia office in the Federal Building, 6th &
Market St., Rm 9400.

Senator Arlen Specter's chief of staff, Bill Reynolds, is coming from
Washington to meet with representatives from the Philadelphia anti-war
movement, including United for Peace and Justice-UFPJ/Philadelphia. This is
in response to a visit to the Senator's office on March 27th when the names
of U.S. and Iraqi war victims were read.

In the last few months there have been numerous protests near the Senator's home
and visits to his office opposing his support of President Bush's war policies in
Iraq. Monday's meeting with Bill Reynolds will include another request for a town
meeting where the Senator himself will hear from constituents.
