Show Up / Speak Out: Protest With a Purpose As we head toward a shutdown, we're ramping up our presence! Join us on Mondays to protect affordable healthcare access! Republicans are threatening to shut down the government unless they are able to take away health care from millions of working people and families, raising their costs. They've made it clear: they are willing to shut down our government to keep enormous tax cuts in place for billionaires, all while our healthcare premiums go sky high. Let's demand they prioritize NEPA families in this federal budget - including permanently extending the enhanced health care tax credits that help NEPA families afford quality care. EVENT INFO: Bring signs! Signs focused on healthcare and the ACA will be perfect! Invite your friends! Let's get as many folks there as possible! Do YOU have a story to tell about how increasing healthcare premiums will impact your family? Let us know! Email us at [email protected] and we can help guide you through the storytelling process. There is often street parking available near Senator McCormick's office. There is also a parking garage across from the Steamtown Marketplace. We're there to stand up for each other and for healthcare for our families and neighbors. We keep our events fun, positive, and safe for all attendees. If there are any detractors there, please don't give them any of your energy and defer to Action Together NEPA staff to keep everyone safe. EVERGREEN EVENT INFO Our communities in NEPA deserve to be heard. That’s why we’re launching Show Up / Speak Out, a weekly campaign to deliver letters and petitions, share our stories, stand up for our communities, and demand action from our legislators. 📣 If we can’t get in the door, we’ll make our voices heard outside. ✊ Whether constituents get a visit or it’s strictly a protest with a purpose, we’ll be there — every week. 🗓️ Every Monday at 2pm – Outside Senator Dave McCormick’s Scranton office (417 Lackawanna Ave, Scranton, PA 18503.) 🏢 We’re gathering outside McCormick’s office, and we’ll take field trips over to Bresnahan’s office. Because guess what? Bresnahan’s office is conveniently located just around the corner! This is what democracy looks like—NEPA style. Action Together NEPA is proud to host these actions as part of the Pennsylvanians Together coalition, working together to create a commonwealth where we all can thrive, not just survive. We work to hold our elected leaders accountable and empower constituents to take action.
