Introduce
Resolutions to
City Councils and State Legislatures
We plan on
using city council and state legislature
resolutions to demonstrate that Americans want
federal legislation based on the Gulf Coast
Civic Works Project. These resolutions will put
pressure on Congress and the President to enact
a WPA-like project for the Gulf Coast in the
near future.

legislation.
This idea for city council and state legislature
resolutions came from Ms. Jeanette Oxford, a
representative in the Missouri State
Legislature. Representative Oxford contacted us last month
saying that she would like to introduce a
resolution into the Missouri State Legislature
in support of the Gulf Coast Civic Works
Project. Representative Oxford introduced her resolution in support
of the Gulf Coast Civic Works Project in February.
We thought it was a great idea, and have decided
to replicate it around the country.
Please feel free to use the Missouri resolution
to create your own legislation. Of course, you
would have to edit it so it represents your city
or state.
If you decide to do so, please email us at
gulfcoastcivicworks@gmail.com and let us
know your plans.
