Connecticut for Democracy 2025 (CT50501 Meetup)

There is a contingent of about a dozen folks from CT50501 that are going up to Lexington to represent & participate in the American Revolution anniversary demonstration. They are heading up in various cars - the event begins at 10:45am so you’d need to leave CT by 8:30am or thereabouts.

April 19th 2025 commemorates the 250th anniversary of the Shot Heard Around the World at Lexington & Concord, which initiated The American Revolution. It is also the day before we anticipate the Trump regime enacting the Insurrection Act based on the 1/20 E.O. regarding a state of emergency at the southern border (there will be a report from the similarly corrupt DOD/DOJ on 4/20 which we can assume will state that the ‘emergency’ warrants it).

MARK 4/19/25 NOW! ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

What: CT50501 Capitol Day of Protest and Food Drive in partnership with Collective Action CT
When: 12n - 2pm on 4/19/25
Where: CT State Capitol, South Lawn (Capitol Ave frontage)

**Please bring non-perishable food items to donate for a local food pantry in the Hartford community! Thank you!
