I have a completed petition for Invest in Ed. I need it notarized and I need to know where to turn it in. I live in Casa Grande but can drive elsewhere if necessary.
I checked the Invest in Ed website and here’s info on turning in these petitions:

Contact: Field Director Kieran Elia, kieran@investinedaz.com.
Hello there is a national family separation protest for “Families Belong Together” on June 30. Where is the Phoenix AZ protest going to be? I didn’t see it in the calendar.
Pete
Checked the national website for Families Belong Together, and no event popped up for Phoenix zip code of 85007. Let me know if you hear of any in Phoenix. There is one scheduled for Tucson so I’ll post it shortly. There was one rally by this group in Phoenix on June 1st, and another in Tucson on June 14.

Thank you for your help
