March on Harrisburg

 

UUFP hosted a group of 25 activists on Monday evening, May 15th to aid in their March from Philadelphia to Harrisburg. The March was a “non-partisan state-wide volunteer effort to heal our wounded democracy.” Their goal was to present 3 bills to the Harrisburg legislature: • ban unlimited gifts • end gerrymandering • create automatic voter registration Desiree coordinated with the organizers of the March, which enabled the activists to have a hearty evening meal, a safe place to “crash” overnight and a good breakfast to send them on their way to Reading the next day.
