14th Amendment Equality Pledges
- Posted by Marcia Everett
40 people took the pledge
If every organization asks you to come to an event, and they are all on different days, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO GO? HOW DO YOU CHOOSE between the environment, right to work for less, abortion, and voting rights? YOU CAN'T we have to fight for them all TOGETHER, SIMULTANEOUSLY and the sooner the activist org know that the better so CITIZENS.... TELL THEM!!! Let's show up on the 14th and GROW!!!
Acitivist orgs., you could help easily, by writing a note on our page asking people to join us. You could support more, by letting your list serve know what we're trying to do. And you could help best, by sending someone who could speak for a few minutes about one of these issues.
Thanks.
Let's have a "march" every 14th of the month. If the 14th is a weekday go to the legislators, if it's on a weekend go to the community. Keep building until summer of 2014!!! 14th Amendment symbolizes equality under the law!!!
