GPMI Resolution on Borders—November 15, 2003

===============================================

Now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED that the Green Party of Michigan (GPMI) stands in support of the Borders workers; and be it further

RESOLVED that GPMI encourages its members to boycott Borders, Waldenbooks, and Amazon.com until this issue is resolved.
