Tell Congress: Put families first!
On Saturday, July 26th, families in every corner of the country will come together in peaceful marches, rallies, gatherings, and actions to say: Our families come first, and we will continue to come together, and rise for each other.
What’s happening? The Big Bad Betrayal Bill that Republicans passed in Congress and President Trump signed into law will lead to 17 million people losing health insurance and needless suffering, hunger, and higher costs for many of our families and communities. THIS IS NOT OK!
That’s why we're gathering peacefully in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. against the cruel choice to trade our health, safety, and basic needs to make the rich richer. We're going to make sure every one of our friends and neighbors hears about the historic betrayal of everyday families in America—and how Republican leadership in Congress and the White House chose cuts to programs we all need to fund cruel attacks on immigrants and more tax breaks for the rich, undermining the health and safety of all of our families.
Sign up to attend an event near you NOW to fight for our families' health and futures.
People everywhere, in groups of all sizes—from 2 to 200 or more—are meeting up in peaceful marches, rallies, and actions to say: The families of America are watching, and will continue to stand strong for our families, our communities, our economy, and our country.
This is a peaceful, nationwide mobilization organized by a coalition of unions, advocacy groups, faith leaders, and families committed to protecting democracy, dignity, and care. All events are grounded in nonviolence, community safety, and strategic protest.
