  • Wheaton North – We the People Speak: 1st Amendment Action

    We the People Speak: 1st Amendment Action Group invites everyone concerned about our Democracy to join us on Saturday, Oct 17th. We object to any regime and its attempts at remaking our government into a Fascist state! This does not in any way create a more perfect Union! It is not the promise of our Declaration of Independence nor our Constitution! We do NOT consent!

    Bring your energy, your enthusiasm, signs with your specific message and overall – support of voting rights!

    **We decide who represents us. We decide what comes next.**

    For more than a year, millions of people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to kings, billionaires, or politicians who believe they are above the people and the law.

    Now, we are taking the next step, turning people power into voter power. Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: Vote Early, is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it’s a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing **our community** together to make a plan to vote early and ensuring every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard.

    Because no one person gets to decide our leaders before voters do. On October 17th, join us in local events across the country as we get out the early vote and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings.

    *No Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters.*

    *A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.*
