We stand united with folks across the country as they too deliver the Poor People’s Campaign 14 Policy Priorities to legislative leaders and governor at their state capitals. Together we are bringing attention to the impact of policies which promote systemic racism, poverty and inequality, the war economy and militarism, environmental devastation, and the corrupt moral narrative.

Join us March 15th!
