The South Carolina Poor People’s Campaign will take a letter with this list of demands to the offices of Senator Lindsey Graham (130 S Main St 7th floor, Greenville, SC 29601) and Senator Tim Scott (2500 City Hall Lane. 3rd Floor Suite. North Charleston, SC 29406) at 12pm ET as it joins “Taking It to the States! Moral Mondays at Senate Offices Across the Nation.”
We are joining at least 40 other states for a Moral Monday to take the fight for democracy to US Senators’ home offices as part of a Season of Nonviolent Moral Direct Action to ask, “Which side are you on?”
The Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival, along with dozens of partners and thousands of faith leaders, are demanding: an end to the filibuster; passage of all provisions of the For the People Act; full restoration of the 1965 Voting Rights Act; and $15/hour federal minimum wage.
The Poor People’s Campaign will then air a collection of these actions online at 8 p.m. ET.
