Womens March Sat Oct 17, 2020

MARCH WITH US ON OCTOBER 17. SATURDAY!!

Hundreds of marches are organized arou d the country, spread the word...
In 2017, women made history when millions of us came together in the streets of Washington D.C. to make our resistance clear. We need to rise up again on October 17 and finish the work we started three years ago.

You KNOW there will be infiltrators with the intent to stir up violence in order to further Trump's narrative about the "violent protestors" and the need for "law and order."

Why give him this ammunition so close to the election when the momentum is with us?

JMHO....

has more impact than not doing so. This is to tell the Senate that they won't get reelected if they vote for the SCOTUS pick as well as getting others to join us in our efforts. Power in numbers. And it is on local news stations for all the hundreds of local events.
