North Carolina Moral Monday Action in Raleigh
Start: Monday, July 26, 2021•10:15 AM
End: Monday, July 26, 2021•11:15 AM
In the third week of the Season of Nonviolent Moral Direct Action, we are calling everyone to Raleigh for a Moral Monday Action at the Office of Senator Thom Tillis to Save Our Democracy! Meet us at 10:15AM at the Terry Sanford Federal Building, 310 New Bern Avenue in Raleigh. We will rally and march to call on Senator Tillis to say YES to our four Demands and to say yes NOW.
We demand that the US Senate and the White House:
End the filibuster
Pass all provisions of the For the People Act
Fully restore the 1965 Voting Rights Act
Raise the federal minimum wage to $15/hr
Now is the time to ask Senator Tillis and ourselves: Which Side Are You On? Democracy or Autocracy? The provisions of the US Constitution or the demands of the US Chamber of Commerce?
This fight is not just about Black or white. What we are witnessing are attacks on people of every race, creed, income, gender, sexuality, ability and identity. The battle to suppress the vote is a tool of wealth distribution upward. Not only are we battling autocracy, but the possibility of descending further into a civil oligarchy.
The purpose of this season of action is to strengthen the resolve of our allies to stand up against these injustices and to challenge the capitulation and inaction of those who have proven themselves to be adversarial to voting rights, economic justice and the very foundations of our democracy.
