Please join us at our seventh rally which will be held at
Lytton Plaza, Palo Alto, on Friday, September 19th @5:30-6:30PM.
Join our seventh rally to protest the terrible assaults on US scientific research, health care, our universities & democracy! SPONSORED by IPA-Plus (Palo Alto Indivisible).
​
With the Ugly Budget Bill passing and our country being flooded with daily attacks on healthcare, science and all the pillars supporting democracy, we urgently need to escalate our community’s resistance. Trump's executive order putting politicians in charge of research grants indicates that he wants science to be corrupted as in the Soviet Union under Stalin. Speakers will address the latest on these multiple attacks, and on mobilizing to weaken the pillars of autocracy and save our country.
​
MUSIC: The Mitchell Park Band will play, and the Raging Grannies will sing.
Bring your outrage, your signs, your voices, your chants, and your creativity and walking shoes!
OPPORTUNITY: after the brief speeches, take the mike for a couple of minutes to talk about which cuts/assaults seem most disastrous to you and/or share ideas about effective ways to begin to turn the tide.
MARCH: after the rally those who can will march along nearby streets in Palo Alto singing a new protest song and carrying signs on critical issues.
