From the Houston/Harris County Democratic Party Chair:
With the world turning its eyes towards Houston this Sunday, we Houstonians must send a strong and vehement message to this administration. A strong, diverse, and united Houston must reject Trump's racist and incompetent nominees. We must fight his executive orders that exile productive Muslim brothers and sisters of our society. We must not allow Trump and his billionaire friends to plunder that which we all hold in common, our government. Together, we will show the world that #HoustonResists.
Not only is the world watching but your neighbors, brothers, and sisters in Houston are watching too. Show our local leaders that we will not tolerate the further marginalization of our black, brown, Muslim, and women neighbors. Tell them they need to stand with us against Trump!
We are not one big happy family until justice is extended to all!
Bring signs and banners, wear tshirts - media will be there so keep slogans and graphics tasteful
