Hop on a Bus Bound for Philadelphia to Protest Moms for Liberty

June 28th - June 30th

Bus Routes: 1. Durham NC—Lynchburg VA—Washington DC—

2. Buffalo NY—Albany NY—New Windsor MD—Philadelphia

Join Defense of Democracy, The Union’s newest partner, on two charter buses
traveling to Philadelphia to protest the Moms for Liberty National Summit.
June 28-30. Moms For Liberty is a group that is labeled as an extremist
group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. They push for bans on books and
mislead the public about adopted public approved school curricula. Their
values are not consistent with the values we hold in our democracy. Read
more about them here

To ensure these extremist views are not normalized, Defense of Democracy is
running two charter buses to the Moms for Liberty Summit in Philadelphia.
One leaves from Durham, NC and travels to Philadelphia, PA with stops in
Lynchburg, VA and Washington, DC. The other leaves from Buffalo, NY and
travels to Philadelphia with stops in Albany, NY and New Windsor, MD. Both
buses leave on June 28 and return June 30. During your time in Philly you
will be making signs and helping people register to vote. Not only will you
be able to bring attention to this extreme group, you further enhance
democracy by registering people to vote.

Per DofD founder: "I'm happy to share this bus with other organizations as
well, so if you are a member of a group and would like to get a bunch of
people on the bus this would be totally acceptable! Please RSVP ASAP HERE

it is going to be a BLAST."

The bus is FREE, and organizers have a block of hotel rooms (even free
rooms if you need them). As space is limited and the time to register is
short, please only sign up if you are certain you can attend.

If you can’t join us for the event, make sure you get involved in your
local school board meetings and upcoming school board elections to show
support for pro-democracy, pro-public school community members. Get
involved and stay involved. If you are looking for other ways to help
strengthen our democracy check out The Union Action Center

It will take all of us,

The Union
