John,
Yesterday, we marched. Across the country, tens of thousands of us came together to demand a future that reflects the values we hold dear. We stood in solidarity, showing that our power lies in our unity and our commitment to building the world our communities deserve.

The People’s March was a declaration of that truth—a demonstration of what is possible when we refuse to accept a system that prioritizes billionaires over our communities. Together, we are fighting for what we know we deserve:
- Our people deserve quality and affordable housing within our communities that allows us to maintain the bonds essential to our collective survival.
- Our people deserve access to quality and affordable healthcare in their communities – without restriction – that honors our right to make decisions about our own bodies, our families, and lives.
- Our people deserve to know that our resources are not funding or supporting political violence or war, and that we are safe in our homes and communities, no matter who we are or where we live in the world.
- Our people deserve access to quality, robust, and free education that accurately reflects both history and the lived experiences of our communities.
- Our people deserve a thriving democracy with access to all the components that keep it healthy, including secure elections, the right to vote and to protest, and freedom of speech and the media.
- Our people deserve the freedom to move, whether in search of safety, quality of life, or simply to be with our loved ones without stigma or the threat of detainment, imprisonment, or violence.
- Our people deserve a healthy environment—our air, water, and earth free from pollutants—and a comprehensive response to the climate crisis that protects this planet for future generations.
- Our people deserve to live free from the perpetual violence of prisons and policing.
- Our people deserve the freedom to express the diversity of our genders, sexualities, families, and lives, free from the threat of violence, discrimination, and loss of opportunities.
- Our people deserve community, solidarity, and action.
The fight for what we deserve is long, but together, we are powerful.
In gratitude,
Women’s March
