With both of our U.S. Senators and the Alaska State Legislature in town this week, it’s a great opportunity to get maximum effect from public protest – now is the time to be seen! Public protests work, but only if you show up. Schedule and links below.
TODAY – Wednesday February 22
- Wednesday, Feb. 22, 7:30-8:30 am, in front of the State Capitol
Juneau People for Peace and Justice Stand with Refugees and Immigrants. See Facebook event here: Stand with Refugees and Immigrants
- Wednesday, Feb. 22, noon-1pm, in front of the Dimond Courthouse (across the street from the State Capitol)
Stand with Planned Parenthood Rally. See Facebook event here: Juneau Stand with Planned Parenthood Rally
FRIDAY
- Friday, Feb. 24, noon-1pm, State Capitol steps
Resistance Recess / Represent the People: A rally in support of the environment, healthcare, community, and democracy. RSVP at Resistance Recess or Represent the People.
None of these are official Tongass Democrats events, but they all look like great ideas to me! I’ll be at the noontime rallies, and I hope to see you there!
