The current president of the United States, Donald J. Trump, has said he may not accept the results of the upcoming presidential election on November 3rd, 2020. He has attempted to sabotage the counts of absentee ballots and access to voting locations. If Trump refuses to concede power after the election by (1) claiming victory when he is not victorious (2) stopping ballot counting before all votes have been counted, that is a government takeover, a coup.

If you believe in a democratic process and want power to go to whichever candidate wins the electoral college when all votes have been counted, we are with you.

To shut a coup down, we need to shut society as we know it down until the victorious candidate has obtained office. To do this, we need to strike from school and work.

Please join us in planning to protect our democracy by pledging to strike from work and school if a coup is organized after the November 3rd, 2020 election.

We need everyone to work together to defend our democracy.
