TIAA-CREF retirement members: TIAA-CREF owns over $5.8 million worth of stock in Cracker Barrel Restaurants, the Tennessee based restaurant chain that has an open policy of discrimination against lesbians, gay men and bisexuals. A federal judge recently ruled that stockholders may vote to change day-to-day business operating policy. The Cracker Barrel stockholders meeting will be held later this month. Mr. Dick Sehleser is the individual responsible for voting OUR shares. Take this opportunity to let him know how you want him to vote. Mr. Sehleser may be reached by fax at: 212-916-5385 or telephoned directly at: 1-800-842-2733 ext. 4021. If you know other individuals who have retirement plans linked to TIAA-CREF, share this information with them and urge them to contact Mr. Sehleser. We can win this battel against open corporate discrimination in the board romm at this month's stockholders meeting! (And after we do, let's organize a nation-wide "Coming Out Party" at every Cracker Barrel Restaurant across the nation!) Pass this information along to your local media.
