meeting: wed, 8/14 7pm Mikey's Gyros (tonight)



There will be a meeting at Mikey's Gyros, downtown Moscow, 7pm tonight (wed, 
8/14)  Come help overturn the sexist nudity ordinance.  Bring a friend.


On July 15th, Moscow’s City Council approved Ordinance 2002-13, the nudity 
ordinance.   The ordinance, as written, makes it illegal for a woman to bare 
her breasts in public view.  This means her private property, including her 
home, if it is open to public view.  It also makes it illegal for women to 
wear certain bikinis and attire in public.
The fine is up to $500 or 6 months in prison.
MER believes the ordinance is sexist and unconstitutional and suppresses the 
rights of women in order to prevent another person from feeling a certain 
way.
MER is committed to upholding the 14th amendment's guarantee of equal 
protection under the law for all citizens.
MER has started a petition drive to put the ordinance to a public vote.
