SUMMARY:Stand With Texas Rally
DESCRIPTION:The outrageous Texas power grab by Donald Trump and his fellow thugs is a political emergency with national implications. Through their brazen attempt to gerrymander 5 Congressional seats into the Republican column\, they are undermining fair elections\, silencing voters of color\, and attacking our country’s democratic foundations. \nWe need action everywhere because this will not stop in Texas. Illinois was one of the first states to stand up\, showing that we are going to defend the vote\, protect our rights\, and oppose this anti-democratic power grab. \nCome join us in downtown Chicago when we raise our voices with defenders of Democracy in cities across the nation on August 16 at 11:00 a.m. Sign up today and spread the word! \nNOTE: A core principle behind this action is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. \nSign up today to join us!

SUMMARY:John Lewis Day of Remembrance and Action - Good Trouble Lives On
DESCRIPTION:About this event\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGood Trouble Lives On is a national day of nonviolent action to respond to the attacks posed on our civil and human rights by the Trump administration and to remind them that in America\, the power lies with the people. \nOn July 17\, the anniversary of Congressman John Lewis’s passing\, we’re taking action across the country to defend our democracy and carry forward his legacy of Good Trouble. \nFrom voter suppression bills like the SAVE Act to the criminalization of protest\, the Trump administration is launching a full-scale attack on our civil and human rights. But we know the truth: in America\, the power lies with the people\, and we’re rising to prove it. \nThis is more than a protest; it’s a moral reckoning. A continuation of the movement Lewis helped lead\, and a new front in the struggle for freedom. \nPlease note: A core principle behind our Good Trouble Lives On actions is a commitment to nonviolence in all we do. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
