No mace\, pocket knives\, guns\, multi-tools or any weapons of any style are permitted. Megaphones are not allowed because we do not have a noise permit.

SUMMARY:US Climate Strikes | September 20\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:The Houston Climate Strike will be the biggest climate strike in Houston history. As the energy capital world\, Houston is in a position to push the global community toward green energy. This transition will include access to training\, unionized jobs\, and support for those impacted by the switch in industry. We invite you to come stand with us and continue to the fight for a better future! If you are planning on joining us please remember to carpool\, walk\, or take public transportation if you are able to! \nSign up at https://actionnetwork.org/events/houston-climate-strike-2? \nJOIN THE CLIMATE STRIKE\nBeing a young person in 2019 means living every day in fear and dread as we see the foundations of civilization crumbling around us. \nIt means trying not to imagine what the world will look like in 30 years\, or even 10 years. \nScientists tell us we have just 11 years to transform our economy before it’s too late to protect human civilization as we know it. To achieve the scale of transformation science demands\, we need elected officials at every level of government to treat the climate crisis like the emergency it is and make the Green New Deal their top priority. But right now\, the leaders supposed to tackle this crisis are either asleep at the wheel or purposely driving us toward catastrophe so their oil and gas billionaire friends can keep raking in profits. \nDespite calls for a climate debate in the forms of 540\,000 petition signatures\, all major presidential candidates\, and over 100 DNC members\, the DNC voted on the weekend of August 24th to deny the resolution for a climate debate. Our future is at stake\, but Tom Perez just swept aside the climate crisis for someone else to solve. \nThat isn’t leadership. Once again\, we will have to take the lead. We will start by striking together. Will you join us?

SUMMARY:Tell the Mayor No Hostile Corporate Takeover of HISD
DESCRIPTION:Come to City Council to demand the city to BACK OFF of a corporate takeover plan for four black and brown HISD schools. \nSign up to speak for Tuesday afternoon Public Session by calling the City Secretary’s office at 832.393.1100\, sending an email to citysecretary@houstontx.gov or coming by the office on the public level of the City Hall Annex\, 900 Bagby\, Houston 77002 by 1:30 p.m. that Tuesday. \nIf you cannot attend\, contact your district rep\, the five at large reps\, and the mayor’s office (contact info at the bottom of this description). \nTHE FACTS\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\nThe City of Houston has established a “nonprofit” astroturfed special interest group with the doublespeak title “Coalition for Educational Excellence and Equity in Houston”\, designed to mask the hostile corporate takeover over HISD schools. The registered agent is Juliet Stipeche\, the Mayor’s point person on education. The board comprises three wealthy right wing benefactors: Trini Mendenhall\, Corbin Robertson Jr\, and Stephanie Paige. \nPaige is the education contact for ALEC\, a right wing takeover group that disguises the self interest of the wealthy as the advancement of society through philanthropy. ALEC has a deep\, well-documented public track record of establishing beachheads in education and other public sectors\, dividing and conquering communities\, and selling them for parts. \nRobertson is a billionaire coal magnate known for expansive dark money efforts undermining climate research through fake advocacy to protect their bottom line by papering over steep environmental damage that disproportionately impacted poor communities in the United States. \nThese people have NO BUSINESS being anywhere NEAR anything that is supposed to be for the public good\, much less in control of the future of our children. \nCity of Houston Contact Info\nMayor’s Office\n(713) 697-9221 \nTwitter: @sylvesterturner\nPress Secretary: @iammarybenton\nDeputy Press Secretary: @tmakrivera \nDistrict A Councilmember Brenda Stardig\nPhone: 832.393.3010\nFAX; 832.393.3302\nE-Mail: districta@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @brendastardig \nDistrict B Councilmember Jerry Davis\nPhone: 832.393.3009\nFAX; 832.393.3291\nE-Mail: districtb@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @davisdistrictb \nDistrict C Councilmember and Mayor Pro-Tem Ellen Cohen\nPhone: 832.393.3004\nE-Mail: districtc@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @ellencohen \nDistrict D Councilmember Dwight Boykins\nPhone: 832.393.3001\nFAX; 832.393.3201\nE-Mail: districtd@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @dwightboykins \nDistrict E Councilmember Dave Martin\nPhone: 832.393.3008\nFAX: 832.393.3279\nE-Mail: districte@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @cmdavemartin \nDistrict F Councilmember Steve Le\nPhone: 832.393.3002\nE-Mail: districtf@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @SteveLe HTX \nDistrict G Councilmember Greg Travis\nPhone: 832.393.3007\nFAX; 832.395.9571\nE-Mail: districtg@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @travisdistrictg \nDistrict H Councilmember Karla Cisneros\nPhone: 832.393.3003\nE-Mail: districth@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @karla4houston \nDistrict I Councilmember Robert Gallegos\nPhone: 832.393.3011\nE-Mail: districti@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @robertgallegosi \nDistrict J Councilmember Mike Laster\nPhone: 832.393.3015\nFAX; 832.395.9423\nE-Mail: districtj@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @_mikelaster \nDistrict K Councilmember Martha Castex-Tatum\nPhone: 832.393.3016\nFAX: 832.395.9410\nE-Mail: districtk@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @marthacastext \nAt-Large 1 Councilmember Mike Knox\nPhone: 832.393.3014\nFAX: 832.395.9472\nE-Mail: atlarge1@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @mikeknox2015\nAt-Large 2 Councilmember David Robinson\nPhone: 832.393.3013\nFAX; 832.395.9455\nE-Mail: atlarge2@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @dwr4hou \nAt-Large 3 Councilmember Michael Kubosh\nPhone: 832.393.3005\nFAX; 832.393.3251\nE-Mail: atlarge3@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @kuboshmichael (Note: this account is protected).\nAt-Large 4 Councilmember Amanda Edwards\nPhone: 832.393.3012\nFAX; 832.393.3327\nE-Mail: atlarge4@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @amanda4houston \nAt-Large 5 Councilmember Jack Christie\nPhone: 832.393.3017\nFAX; 832.395.9426\nE-Mail: atlarge5@houstontx.gov\nTwitter: @drjackchristie

SUMMARY:National Day of Action - Families Belong Together
DESCRIPTION:Houstonians- UNITE! Join Indivisible Houston\, PSR Houston\, FIEL and other allied groups Saturday\, June 30th at 10 AM for a rally at City Hall and march to Ted Cruz’s office to show solidarity with families and opposition to burdensome\, ignorant\, divisive immigration law. \nThe horrors of the deportation machine and the Administration’s decision to kidnap children and use them as pawns in exchange for a fantasy real estate construction project along the southern border rip apart families and destroy communities. \nJoin us to demand that our publicly elected employees take the following actions: \n1) End the new DHS policy of family separation in order to REUNITE FAMILIES; \n2) Vote against the Goodlatte Immigration plan; \n3) Defund ICE (an agency established after 9/11 with expanded powers beyond standard\ncustoms checks and enforcement); and \n4) End private prison donations and require reps return all private prison donations- both individual and PAC. \n#EndFamilySeparation #AbolishICE #AbolishCBP \nORGS\nIndivisible Houston\nPantsuit Republic Houston\nFIEL\nPantsuit Republic State\nBlack Lives Matter Houston\nAFL-CIO\nTOP\nDSA Houston \n– \nDia Nacional de Accion\nDia Nacional de Accion \nLa humanidad no requiere ciudadania \nSabado 30 de Junio 10:00 AM \nReunion en City Hall (Palacio Municipal) para marchar a la oficina de el Senador Ted Cruz \nPARAR LA SEPARACION DE FAMILIAS \nDetalles \nAmigo de Houston – UNETE!
