Indivisible: NO SAVE ACT Protest — 11 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. — S. Wadsworth Blvd. & W. Alameda Ave., Lakewood

This Act and its more extreme versions – the SAVE America Act and MEGA Act – could keep millions of eligible U.S. citizens from being able to vote, severely restrict vote by mail, and increase federal control over state and local elections. These bills ARE about silencing voters and setting the stage to interfere with election results they don’t like. These bills ARE NOT about safeguarding or keeping our elections free and fair. Want to protest a different issue about this regime? That’s great! Show up and bring your signs. No signs? We usually have extra signs you can borrow during the rally.”
