March For Our Lives Summer road trip to get people registered to vote.

https://marchforourlives.com/tour/
Check out the link and see when they will be in your town. RESIST GUN VIOLENCE....VOTE!

The Road to Change kicks off on Friday, June 15 in Chicago, where we’ll be joining the Peace March, led by students from St. Sabina Academy.

From there we are traveling from city to city, with more than 50 planned stops in over 20 states including Iowa, Texas, California, South Carolina, and Connecticut. We’ll also hold a separate Florida tour with more than 25 stops, visiting every congressional district.

We’re going to places where the NRA has bought and paid for politicians who refuse to take simple steps to save our lives — and we’ll be visiting a number of communities that have been affected by gun violence to meet fellow survivors and use our voices to amplify theirs.

At each stop, we’ll register young people to vote and educate them on the reforms we need to save lives, and whether their local elected officials support these reforms or support the NRA.

For more information about the Road to Change, text CHANGE to 977-79.

It's just sad that "Not getting shot" has become a political issue. What have we become? ck4829 Jun 2018 #3

These kids are doing more for our country than our elected officials. Wishing you all safe travels.
