Some are saying on social media "this is none of our business; stay home" - but we don't agree.

Here are 7 reasons why you should go:

• These are Our Services, Our Jobs, Our Dollars: Everyone deserves good jobs, reliable services, and a fair economy—but Trump, Musk, and their billionaire buddies are destroying livelihoods, gutting public resources, and driving up costs just to pad their own pockets.
• They’re Coming For All of Us: No matter what issues matter to you, you have a dog in this fight. The things you hold precious are absolutely on the chopping block for Trump, Musk, and congressional Republicans.
• We Have The Power: This fight is just beginning, and we’re mobilizing to jumpstart the opposition. Together, we have the power to stop this takeover.
• This Cannot Be Business As Usual: We are facing an unconstitutional threat to our country, our civil rights, and our freedoms through an illegal power grab. Now is the time to make our voices heard and demand our lawmakers to use their power to hold Trump and Musk accountable. 

• 🔥 We are facing a national crisis:
• Donald Trump has launched an unprecedented power grab—attacking our civil rights, driving up prices, slashing funding for essential programs, and creating instability at every turn. 
• Enabled by Elon Musk and Republicans in Congress, his corrupt agenda is making life harder for everyday Americans while eroding our democracy. We can’t afford to wait any longer to fight back.
• 🐷 They think everything belongs to them. 
• Trump and his allies are rapidly stripping America for parts and selling us out—and now Congress is trying to do the same by slashing Medicaid, Social Security, cancer research funding, and more. Why? To give more tax cuts to billionaires.
• 💸 The services and jobs they’re slashing aren’t theirs—they’re ours. 
• Our communities are paying the price while the Trumps and Musks of the world cash in. It’s not just about money—it’s about power. 
• This administration is targeting everybody who isn’t part of the 1%—veterans, kids, seniors, farmers, immigrants, communities of color, transgender people, and political opponents. All to consolidate power and reward their allies.

Don't let people convince you that "sitting this out until it blows over" is the way to go.

Taking action is the only way to counter this chaos and as President Clayola Brown reminds us in this video below.
