Indivisible Auburn: Hands Off Rally

April 5 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm PDT

From the organizer: 

On April 5th, #50501, Indivisible, and many other organizations are sponsoring demonstrations in every state. There will be a large showing in Sacramento. We want to show our local concern and support and will have a demonstration of our own in Auburn. Protesters will bring attention to the many anti-democracy issues (voter suppression, mass layoffs in needed services, threats to Social Security, threats to Medicare and more. We will also ask AGAIN, #WheresKevinKiley since he refuses to do an in-person Town Hall.

Participants are asked to wear blue, yellow, or blue/yellow to show our support for the people of Ukraine and against the Russian aggressor, Putin.

We will also have a mailbox for you to deposit your letters to Kiley. We will make sure they are delivered to him. We are also collecting non-perishable food stuffs. Trump’s economy will hurt many and we can help out by taking these donations to the local food bank.Our last demonstration was held by the Placer County/Auburn Courthouse. But, this date is the same time as the Auburn Farmers’ Market nearby. The parking would be very hard for everyone. So, we are meeting at the corner of Bell Rd. and Highway 49 on the sidewalks which are public property. There is parking at Target and in the parking lot by Panera and McDonald’s across the street.
Drivers have generally been quite supportive. However, participants are encouraged not to engage with any MAGA folks who might get confrontational. No one “wins” and it could cause issues. We are the “good guys”.
If you want to go to Sacramento instead to add to the huge response, try to carpool since parking is difficult.

Sign up here.
