Subject: Medea Benjamin - Front Page of Today's (March 29, 2001) NY Times
Northern California Green Party leader Medea Benjamin is escorted away by California Highway Patrol officer Ed Saenez as Loretta Lynch, standing, background, attempts to chair a meeting of the California Public Utilities Commission, Tuesday, March 27, 2001, in San Francisco. As Medea and other protesters chanted 'Hell, no, we won't pay!' California's regulators irresponsibly approved electricity rate increases of up to 46 percent Tuesday with the alledged motive of thwarting blackouts and keeping California's utilities from being taken over by the people.
