This Sunday, March 29, we're taking to the digital streets. Click this link at 3:30 PM ET/ 12:30 PM PT to join a #PeoplesBailout digital rally!
As Daily Kos' Joan McCarter wrote, "The next coronavirus bailout has to be for the people."
In the past, when the government failed to respond to the will of the people, we've held vigils, rallies, and lobby days. COVID-19 has presented a new challenge, and we're hoping that this digital approach will show the scale and depth of our collective power.
Together, we'll demand that elected officials on all levels of government enact broad, transformative policies that put people before corporations.
We have an incredible program lined up, including Stacey Abrams, Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II, National Nurses United President Jean Ross, RN, Meah Pace of the the Resistance Revival Chorus, and many more community leaders. I hope you're able to join us.

Thanks and see you in the digital streets!
