Parkland Students On Nationwide Bus Tour To Register Young Voters

With all the news about Trump's and the Repugs Children Separation Policy - we've been remiss at talking about the Parkland Students 2 Month Road To Change Bus Tour to register voters.

I thought I'd post a couple of links detailing this and hope that DU'ers in cities that these students will visit will keep us posted of their activities.

Here's a link to the story about their tour:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-parkland-graduates-voter-registration-20180604-story.html

Their first stop was in Chicago and here is an account of that visit: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-saint-sabina-parkland-kids-giffords-march-20180615-story.html

After leaving the Chicago area on Saturday, the tour will be in St. Louis on Sunday; Kansas City, Monday; Omaha, Tuesday; Sioux City, Wednesday; Cedar Rapids and Marion, Iowa, Thursday; Janesville, Wisc., June 22; Milwaukee, June 23; Minneapolis-St. Paul, June 24; Hennepin County, Minn., June 24; Minneapolis, June 25; Moorehead, Minn., June 26; Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, June 27; and Bismarck, N.D., June 28.

The website (https://marchforourlives.com/road-to-change/) describes the tour as a bid “to rally our generation around saving lives this November and call out the leaders who refuse to stand up to the NRA.”

Please keep them in your thoughts and support their efforts.

The Sioux will welcome them..

Not sure about Bismarck. Its such a strong 2nd Ammendment Red State.
Expect a sort of protest...just because they are a**holes.

Stay safe brave beautiful ones!

Proud to stand with them!
