Women's March 2018 scheduled.

[BigmanPigman]

To mark the anniversary of the first march, this year's will be held on Sat., Jan. 20th. It is scheduled for many cities (mine is on the list...I am going with my sister again). Check out the link and read their mission statement. We need to draw attention to women's rights and to get the vote out.

1. Great

I hope it’s larger than the last one.

2. No D. C. ??

Annapolis can't handle 10% of the first D.C. crowd.

I think we'll take the train to wherever

8. According to the linked article,

the National Team, organizers of last years' march, has not made an announcement. Maybe they are in charge of D.C.

9. I'll keep it in mind

A family trip to DC via Amtrak is overdue.

3. Any agendas we need to be informed about, or is this a pure women's march we can all get behind,

without a confrontation in defining the event.

I am ready for another. I think the first set the stage in rising, that has damaged Republicans and this administration, even without the power. I think it was very effective and we have that much more to resist, today.

I would like to know there is not going to be issue with this one, too. I think women have to ask up front to know what we are supporting.

7. From the link...

"Should you go to one of the January marches, expect to see more tie-ins from other activist and special interest groups."

4. Boston/Cambride.

I will be there.

5. Here's my feeling. I would rather march now to shed light on the tax bill,

(Which is not a done deal)...then wait until Jan.

11. I have been posting info all over DU about the anti Tax Bill actions

that are currently happening. I will post them again here. This is info from Sun. and yesterday so it may already have changed since word is FINALLY getting out.

I was part of the Not One Penny nationwide phone call today and you are doing what Ben said we all need to do. The bill is not a win, it is a disaster and we can stop it. There are still a few weeks left and the three things we must do...
1. Attend protests, town halls, etc and make sure the media is there, no matter how big or small it is. The media has been absent due to the non stop distractions. There are many important issues but this is our BIGGEST PRIORITY for the next few weeks.
2. Keep up the CALLS. They started late but eventually their staffers were busy ...call, tell your family and friends in other states to call too. [phone]

3. Social media is crucial. Retweet and share whatever you can. Send it to the media. Events, town halls, protests are occurring and over 100 are planned for this week alone. Bernie, Cory Booker, Indivisible, MoveOn have been going to Kentucky, Ohio and PA all weekend.

New info is already coming out. One new fact since the Fri vote is that there will be 1/2 trillion more dollars added to the deficit. 28% of Americans approve of the Tax Scam. This week Ryan will appoint Repub to his closed door "conference committee" and then we can target those reps. The house and senate have to "negotiate a compromise". What they voted on is different in each chamber. For now we know of 28 Rep congressmen who voted against one of the two bills/plans. We need to flip 23 of them. The Senate will need to be PRESSURED NON STOP...this means calling the 9 senators that were wavering. If we get Alabama we only need two more senators with Corker. This would be great. Also there is the threat of a govt shutdown by Fri., Dec. 8th.
We have been the catalysts of the grass roots efforts for a year and have stopped major legislation. We have a few more weeks until the holidays. After that we have to spread the word about what the GOP has done to the stability and future of our country with this tax cut for the rich and they are taking money from the sick and poor which will bankrupt millions and take over 13 million off of health care. Meanwhile tax cuts for multi million dollar corporations will not be trickling down at all and never will. The bill ensures that the country will be taxed more over the next 10 year (but not the corporations...you and me are paying).

We must HAMMER them on this bill. Put the pressure on these greedy, cruel bastards and DO NOT STOP!
