The event comes one year out from the military’s stated date of implementing the major <a href="http://www.brac.gov/" target="_blank">BRAC</a> relocation.</p>
<p>Six thousand four hundred people are scheduled to start work in the new Mark Center facility on September 15, 2011. Congressman Moran has raised major concerns regarding the traffic problems that will be caused by this relocation. He has passed legislation in the House restricting the amount of parking available at the site in an effort to force the military to upgrade the Mark Center’s transportation infrastructure to prevent the anticipated crippling traffic congestion.</p>
<p>This event is free and open to the public.</p>
<p>When: Thursday, September 16th from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM <br />
Where: Francis C. Hammond Middle School Campus, 4646 Seminary Road, Alexandria, VA 22304 <br />
Who: Panelists include Rep. Jim Moran, Defense Department officials, VDOT officials, and Alexandria City and Fairfax County representatives</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">&#8220;Some men see things as they are and ask why? I see things that never were and ask why not?&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Robert Kennedy&#8217;s words, spoken in hope, mirror those spoken by Martin Luther King, Jr. at the Lincoln Memorial when he shared his dream with the world 40 years ago.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The annual Virginia Kennedy-King dinner, sponsored by the <a href="http://www.va8thcddems.org/" target="_blank">Eighth Congressional District Democratic Committee</a>, celebrates Robert Kennedy&#8217;s and Martin Luther King, Jr.&#8217;s vision. It is an event to honor those Virginians who strive to make the hopes and dreams of these two great leaders a reality. It is a time to reflect on how both of these men continue to touch our lives as Democrats and live in our hearts as Virginians. The monies raised by the event go towards our effort to support Virginia&#8217;s Democrats.</p>

<p>Please join Organizing for America and Gerry Connolly for Congress, with special guests DNC Chairman, Governor Kaine and Congressman Connolly this Sunday, September 5 to knock on doors and engage voters for the critical midterm elections.</p>
<p><strong>Sunday, September 5th  12:30 pm</strong><br />
<strong>Connolly HQ</strong> (11202 Lee Highway, Fairfax, VA 22030; map, <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;source=s_q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=11202+Lee+Hwy,+Fairfax,+VA&amp;sll=38.852492,-77.331519&amp;sspn=0.007302,0.01929&amp;g=11200+Lee+Hwy,+Fairfax,+VA&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=11202+Lee+Hwy,+Fairfax,+Virginia+22030&amp;ll=38.852659,-77.329481&amp;spn=0.007302,0.01929&amp;z=16" target="_blank">click here</a>)</p>
<p>The stakes for the elections this fall couldn’t be higher. The American people have a choice before them. President Obama and Democrats in Congress have worked tirelessly to pull our economy from the brink of disaster, rein in the abuses of health insurance companies, and make pay more equitable between the genders.</p>
<p>This is an excellent opporunity to talk with your neighbors about committing to vote in the upcoming November elections. We’ll be meeting at 12:30 pm to hear Governor Kaine, get fired up and ready to go, canvassing in teams, then heading back to celebrate. Don’t forget to bring a friend to make a difference in your community.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t like knocking on doors? We&#8217;ll also be phone banking, so if you have a cell phone and a charger, please bring them if you can!</p>
