SUMMARY:Get in Line\, Senator Tillis
DESCRIPTION:This joyful protest gets in step for justice – literally. “Joy is a form of resistance” is often attributed to the poet Toi Derricotte. \nWe’re dancing to send a clear and unified message to Senator Thom Tillis: it’s time to GET IN LINE with the people of North Carolina! While he continues to ignore the will of his constituents\, we’re responding not with silence\, but with rhythm\, joy and movement! Our feet will hit the ground in Guilford County on July 12\, where every step is a stand – a stand for community building\, for kindness\, and for those whose voices have been sidelined. \nWith music\, unity and purpose\, we’re turning this protest into a celebration and resistance into motion! Join us – because when we move together\, we shift the future\, and we won’t stop dancing until our representatives fall in line with the people they serve!

SUMMARY:Sustain the Veto Rally
DESCRIPTION:Governor Stein recently vetoed these three anti-DEI bills\, in so doing he acted to protect all North Carolinians. Now\, we have to make sure that legislators sustain the VETO on these bills. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSB227 attempts to prohibit public school units from promoting certain concepts. Under this bill\, public school units shall not engage in discriminatory practices\, provide instruction on divisive concepts\, engage in professional development that includes or advocates for divisive concepts or discriminatory practices\, or maintain DEI offices or positions.\nSB558 attempts to prohibit public institutions of higher education like the UNC system or community colleges from promoting certain concepts. This bill requires that higher education institutions not engage in the same practices as listed in SB227 and also prohibits them from establishing a process for reporting or investigating offensive or unwanted speech that is protected by the 1st Amendment.\nHB171 would prohibit state agencies from promoting\, supporting\, funding\, implementing\, or maintaining workplace diversity\, equity\, and inclusion programs\, policies\, or initiatives. They would also be prohibited from maintaining dedicated diversity\, equity\, and inclusion staff positions or offices\, or offering or requiring trainings. The bill would prohibit state agencies\, local governments\, and covered schools from using state funds to implement or maintain these programs and compliance would be determined by the State Auditor. A state officer or employee who violates this section would be subject to removal from office or employment and a civil penalty.

SUMMARY:Court the Vote NC

Join us to hold North Carolina’s high court accountable. \nJoin us for Court the Vote NC\, a public rally to hold the North Carolina Supreme Court accountable. Hosted by a statewide coalition—this event will feature community leaders and everyday North Carolinians\, including veterans and other voters impacted by the corruption of the Newby-Berger Court.

SUMMARY:Defend the Veto: Message From the Future Action at the Legislature
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, Speaker Destin Hall and the NC GOP will try to overturn Gov. Josh Stein’s vetoes of 11 bills\, including SB 153 and HB 318\, which would dramatically increase ICE’s ability to detain and deport North Carolinians. \nIf all 49 House Democrats show up and vote to sustain the vetoes\, we will defeat Destin Hall’s attempt to use our state tax dollars to abduct immigrants. \nPlease join us at 9am at the legislature building (16 W Jones Street) as we send “A Message from the Future” as the legislators convene for the vote. \nCome dressed as your future self (whatever that means to you). We’ll be bringing our families – kids welcome.

SUMMARY:Pack the NCGA Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Join the North Carolina Democrats as we pack the gallery of the General Assembly to stop SB 266\, an outrageous GOP bill that would raise energy bills on working families while killing clean energy progress. \nGovernor Josh Stein vetoed this dangerous bill to protect working families. But now\, Republicans in the General Assembly are returning to Raleigh to try and raise your energy bills instead of passing a budget. \nWe’re rallying at the Old Capitol Grounds\, then marching to the General Assembly to pack the gallery and make our voices heard.\nLet’s fill every seat and remind our elected officials who they serve! \nTime may change\, depending on the call of the general assembly\, a more specific time will be shared as soon as we have it.

SUMMARY:Protest the latest GOP power grab in the General Assembly
DESCRIPTION:Meet us at Halifax Mall on July 29\, 2025 at 11 am for a CHEATER RACE to protest the Republican cheaters partisan take over of the NC Board of Elections and staff – House Bill 958 will be debated in the Judiciary Committee at 1 pm that day. Make your opposition heard at the Cheater Race\, which will dramatize exactly the ways that this bill tilts elections in favor of Republicans. This bill makes the State Board of Elections partisan\, wastes money on outside attorneys\, blocks County Boards from encouraging people to vote (!) and politicizes the non-partisan NC Board of Elections\, firing 1/3 of civil servants and replacing them with partisan Republicans. This just the latest GOP dirty trick. Write to your NC Reps!
