SUMMARY:Workers Over Billionaires Rally/Protest
DESCRIPTION:Workers Over Billionaires Protest! \n\nOur next day of action will be on Labor Day\, Monday September 1st from 11am to 1pm. The location is TBD. \nAlmost every action of Trump 2.0 has been anti-worker. The Big Ugly Bill initiated the largest transfer of wealth in the history of the country. Taking money and essential services away from those who need to it most and giving it to the 1%. \nCheck on https://www.mobilize.us/ for an event near you!

SUMMARY:Protest the Tea Party Patriots SAVE Act Bus
DESCRIPTION:A bus is travelling around the country collecting signatures on petitions to tell our Senators to vote ‘Yes’ on the SAVE Act. The SAVE Act is purported to be needed to prevent ‘illegals’ from voting\, but it’s true purpose to to disenfranchise millions of legitimate votes – women\, trans\, and non-binary persons in particular. \nWhile it is hightly unlikely our Senators Durbin and Duckworth would even consider voting ‘Yes’ on this bill\, we need to show up to show these outside agitators that they are not welcome in our community or anywhere in Illinois.
