We want to offer you a chance to join us in DC April 16-18 for Democracy Awakening!

Thousands of people will be coming together to demand a democracy that works for all of us – a nation where our votes are not denied and money doesn’t buy access and power. The event includes a day of workshops, a massive rally/march, and visits to Capitol Hill to talk with elected officials. See the full schedule here.

WV CAG is arranging a 15 passenger van to and from DC for the event, and we’d like to offer you a chance to join us! If you’re interested, see below for details and how to sign-up. Seating is limited, so hurry!
