Hi John,
Thanks to everyone who joined our call to action earlier this week to tell Mayor Bowser and the DC Council to take steps to prevent the spread of violence and disease by Trump supporters next weekend, December 12th. The next step of our plan was to focus our efforts on the hotels that hosted these people on November 14th, but we just learned that one of the main Trumpist groups coming to DC on December 12 has told their members to avoid downtown hotels and stay at these hotels instead:

Hi, my name is [NAME]. I'm calling because I am concerned that your hotel is hosting organizations coming from outside DC to spread hate and COVID-19. The rate of new Coronavirus cases has risen nearly 30% in DC since November 14th, when conspiracy theorists, white supremacists, Proud Boys, and MAGA supporters marched on our streets while refusing to wear masks. T hey put Black lives in danger, ripped down memorials, and committed violence against DC residents including the stabbing of 3 people. Will your hotel commit to prevent the spread of violence and disease by:
1. Publicly denouncing white supremacy via social media in a published statement before December 12th. Specifically denouncing the white supremecist groups the Proud Boys andPatriot Front.
2. Refusing services to anyone who refuses to wear a mask.
3. Adhering to DC travel quarantine guidelines by ensuring that guests from high risk areas provide negative COVID-19 testing verification upon check in and placing them on isolated floors of the hotel.
We are working with a range of local allies to fight back against the MAGA crowd's visit. Check out [link removed] [[link removed]] for more information. We will email next week with next steps.
Please make the calls today, and tell your friends! Amplify this action on social media by sharing our Instagram post [[link removed]] .
