SUMMARY:Citizens' March
DESCRIPTION:Our vision is for a budget that meets everyone’s basic needs\, regardless of their age\, ability\, financial or immigration status — a budget that does not take from our most vulnerable to give tax cuts to the most wealthy. A budget that protects our air & water! \nJoin us to take a stand for a moral budget. A budget that reflects our values.  \nRSVP Here: https://actionnetwork.org/events/citizens-march \n* The definition of the word “citizen” is “an inhabitant of a particular town or city”. We chose this name to combat the right-wing rhetoric and help change the narrative around what a Citizen really is. We welcome all concerned members of towns and cities across the Hudson Valley.
