Event Description:

After the Alberto Gonzales hearing the front page of the Washington Post announced: “The Senate Judiciary Committee goes CODEPINK on Gonzales”! Going CODEPINK now means exposing the wrongdoings of the powerful, giving them a public dressing down, holding them accountable. This summer CODEPINK will continue to bust through our nation’s inside-the-beltway politics with a refreshing dash of people power. Come join us on “The Hill” and help us paint the town PINK!
