subscribe Vaccination NewsLetter PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release: March 5, 2003 Contact: Jo Pike, MoMA 843-423-4678 Autism Community to Honor Congressman Dan Burton May 3rd HONORARY DINNER AND DANCE TO BE HELD IN CHICAGO BY PARENTS OF CHILDREN WITH AUTISM. Chicago, IL - Parents of children with autism will hold a dinner and dance on May 3rd to honor Congressman Dan Burton (R-IN). As Chairman of the Committee on Government Reform, Congressman Burton has led the fight in Congress against autism. His work has provided inspiration and guidance for the entire autism community. The 50's-style "Rebel With A Cause" fundraiser will gather parents and advocacy groups together to honor the congressman who has adamantly fought for autism-mercury research and legal recourse for the thousands of children affected. "We support those who support us. Dan Burton has put himself on the line many times for our children and this is our way of giving back," says Barbara Roth, mother of two children with mercury toxicity. The lighthearted event will take place at the Hilton Palmer House in Chicago and will feature parody performances and 50's-style fare. Attendees will have an opportunity to rock around the clock with Congressman Burton while donned in their favorite 50's and 60's attire. Autism advocates and researchers will be providing 50's and 60's-style entertainment for the evening. Performers will include Dr. Andrew Wakefield, Liz Birt (Safe Minds), Jeff Sell (Autism Society of America), Rick Rollens (MIND Institute), Lyn Redwood (Safe Minds), Lori McIlwain (MoMA/TAAP), Adrienne Rousseau (MoMA), and Jo Pike (MoMA).

 "A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth." -- Albert Einstein, letter to a friend, 1901 "I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to William C. Jarvis, September 28, 1820 "What's the point of vaccination if it doesn't protect you from the unvaccinated?" -- Sandy Gottstein "Who gets to decide what the greater good is and how many will be sacrificed to it?" -- Sandy Gottstein |
