Join us in forming a human chain along High Street from Route 161 in Worthington to downtown Columbus, delivering the message that WE STAND UNITED in support of these fundamental values:
• We DEFEND the rights of millions of law-abiding immigrants who fill vital roles in our economy and make America a richer, stronger nation
• We OPPOSE the creation of concentration camps within the United States and the renditioning of immigrants to internment camps in other countries
• We DEFEND U.S. international aid that has saved more than 90 million lives worldwide
• We OPPOSE the loss of health insurance through Medicaid and Obamacare for 17 million Americans, reductions in SNAP benefits that could affect 22 million families and government interference in women’s health care decisions
• We DEFEND Medicare and Social Security programs that older Americans depend upon, and the Veterans Administration that helps fulfill our promise to care for those who have sacrificed for all of us
• We OPPOSE the gutting of staff and funding at FEMA, the National Park Service, the National Weather Service, the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the EPA, the U.S. Post Office and other public agencies that provide essential services
• We DEFEND research and policies designed to combat climate change
• We OPPOSE dismantling the Department of Education and the imposition of government-mandated restrictions on topics that can be taught in our colleges and universities
• We DEFEND the rights of Palestinians, Ukrainians and other vulnerable populations to life, liberty and self-determination
• We OPPOSE the continued military aggression by Russia against Ukraine, and we call for an immediate end to further military aid to Israel until that government complies with the Geneva Conventions and other applicable international laws
• We DEFEND science-based policies and expertise within the Department of Health and Human Services that have helped protect Americans against infectious diseases
• We OPPOSE tax cuts that overwhelmingly favor the rich while adding more than $3 trillion to our national debt
• We DEFEND the democratic principles that have defined the United States of America for 249 years!
