SUMMARY:SAVE DEMOCRACY: ACT NOW!
DESCRIPTION:Rally with Concord Indivisible Saturday\, July 10\, 10:00 a.m. \nMonument Square\, Concord \nConcord Indivisible\, Indivisible Acton Area\, and multiple partner organizations will rally in Concord Center July 10 to support the For the People Act and the freedom of all eligible citizens to vote. Democracy is in the crosshairs\, as states across the nation brazenly pass laws that will keep many eligible citizens from voting — especially citizens of color. Recent Supreme Court decisions have only made federal election reform more urgent. If we do not protect every citizen’s freedom to vote\, the democratic institutions we cherish will not stand\, and there will be little hope of moving forward on racial justice and other key progressive issues. \nThe rally\, part of Indivisible’s Deadline for Democracy project\, will take place in Concord’s Monument Square. Key activists – including Deb Paul of Massachusetts Indivisible and ACLU Massachusetts Executive Director Carol Rose – will give updates on the fight to protect our vote. There will be opportunities to sign up to write postcards\, make phone calls\, text\, and post on social media. Plan to bring signs and MAKE SOME NOISE! \nPartner sponsors for this event include Solidarity Lowell\, Swing Blue Alliance/Swing Left Greater Boston\, Indivisible Acton Area\, Reclaim Our Democracy\, the Concord Democratic Town Committee\, and the Lincoln Democratic Town Committee. An RSVP (https://tinyurl.com/raz33rhc) is encouraged to enhance planning. Please share information about the rally widely with others who may be interested. Democracy cannot wait!
