Thursday Protests at Capito’s & Moore’s Offices in Martinsburg, WV
August 21 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Thursdays in August: 8/14, 8/21, 8/28 We’ll be PEACEFULLY protesting at Capito’s office at 300 Foxcroft Ave. from 10:00 – 10:50 & then at Moore’s office at 739 Winchester Ave. 11:00 – noon.
Capito & Moore have been on recess the whole month of August. This would be a great time for Town Halls — we continue to demand access to our elected members of Congress.
We need to continue to let Capito & Moore know WE DO NOT SUPPORT the many provisions in the reconciliation bill that are devastating for the citizens of West Virginia, their constituents. We will hold them accountable for their betrayal.
We currently have an authoritarian regime that is undermining the foundations of our Democratic Republic, including the role of Congress, and our elected members officials are ceding their power to Trump. Our institutions are being trampled on or destroyed and our rights are being curtailed. We need our representatives to stand up for what is best for West Virginians.
IF YOU CARE ABOUT our Democracy, our Constitution & the Bill of Rights, the Rule of Law, Due Process for all, the practice of kidnapping and disappearing undocumented immigrants & citizens from our communities without due process, our Economy, our Standing in the World, Civil Rights, our Justice System, Medicaid, SNAP, Education, Veterans, the Arts, the Environment, Public Lands, Science, Medical Research, Consumer Protections, Workers’ Rights, NOAA, Americorps, Head Start, Meals-on-Wheels, the Free Press, NPR & PBS…the list is long, WE WELCOME YOU TO JOIN US!
Bring your SPIRIT, your VOICE, a FRIEND, & a SIGN!
There will be extra signs if you need one.
Please note: A core principle behind all our events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
The crew from Berkeley Springs will meet at Black Cat Music Shop at 9:00 to carpool to Martinsburg. Please RSVP to mcwvindivisible@gmail.com if you can, so we’ll have a number for carpooling. If you are willing to drive, please note that.
