Don't Do Koch

http://www.dontdokoch.org/

Coffee Party USA is proud to connect Coffee Party members and supporters with a great idea from Big Apple Coffee Party.

To our fellow Coffee Partier,

Big Apple Coffee Party is launching the Declare Your Independence from the Koch Brothers! campaign that asks people not to buy Koch products for their Fourth of July celebrations.

We're aiming to have flyering events across the country around the weekend of June 28th to remind people that the supplies they buy for their Fourth of July parties shouldn't profit the Koch Brothers. We'll tell people that their Dixie cups dilute the value of their vote—so they should use something else to celebrate their freedom.

We've created a Don't Do Koch website: dontdokoch.org to promote the "Declare Your Independence" campaign and to support our on-going Don't Do Koch actions. There's a toolkit with a pdf of our supermarket flyer and other materials useful in organizing flyering events. ....

And I know some folks have issues with Walgreens - but the ology paper products are what we buy in our house.

Sugar cane and bamboo - earth friendly.

Might be an alternative for folks. The trick to getting them cheap is to buy in bulk when it goes on sale.

I used to be able to find another brand - 100% Treeless at shop rite but the two I frequent no longer carry this brand.

ETA - Husband sent text - manufactured in China - but if it gives a black eye to the Koch brothers this might be a product worth buying that's not made in the USA
