From: Barry Keefe Sent: Friday, September 19, 2014 2:10 PM To: Lee, Chris Subject: Milwaukee-Carora Sister Cities Committee Chris, This is Barry Keefe from Peace Action Wisconsin. In following up with the Sister Cities Committee’s inquiry about the composition of the Milwaukee-Carora Sister Cities Committee: It is important to note that the Milwaukee-Carora Sister Cities Committee is technically administered by our 501c3 sister organization, Peace Education Project of Peace Action Wisconsin (in short: Peace Acton). The Milwaukee Carora Sister City Committee is composed of: -Danny Pneumann: * Chair and Administrator of PEPPAWI Sister City Committee * Lead Organizer for the 2014 Milwaukee Carora Sister Cities Delegation * President of Peace Action Wisconsin -Omar Barbarena: * Lead Organizer for the 2015 Milwaukee Carora-Sister Cities Delegation * Delegate on the 2014 Delegation * Dual Nicaraguan-American citizen * Spanish Professor * Peace Action Wisconsin member -Barry Keefe: * Assistant Organizer for the 2015 Milwaukee-Carora Sister Cities Delegation * Delegate on the 2014 Delegation * Peace Action Wisconsin member. * Journalism Senior at UW-Milwaukee -Mike Heilbeck: * Former Committee Chair and Lead Organizer * Former Peace Action staff * Constituent Services Representative, office of U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin Edward Mercado * Dual Venezuelan-American citizen * Founder, Director of WayaTour * Venezuelan Embassy Spanish Translator * Coordinates in-country Venezuelan Team, including Deputy Diplomats Omar Sierra and Diana Sierra. Many past delegates are actively volunteering their time to help work on committee projects, but do not have a position on the committee. Again, on behalf of Peace Action Wisconsin I’d like to thank the committee for their time on Monday, and I hope this shores up their concerns about the composition of the committee.
