October 26, 2005 -- Members from Health and Environmental Justice St. Louis picketed in front of City Hall today before attempting to deliver to the mayor a progress report on the city's efforts in preventing childhood lead poisoning.
HEJ was denied a meeting with Mayor Francis Slay. Instead, the progress report was delivered to his receptionist.
UPDATE: Apparently Mayor Slay was in after all. At about 4:45 p.m. Wednesday, HEJ members Barb Chicherio and Susie Parker spotted Slay coming out of City Hall and was able to hand him a report card before he was whisked away by aids and security.

Goodness, the Missouri Green Party's full membership attended the rally: Don Fitz! Too bad HEJ is aligned with an opportunist like him.
