We the People: Defending Justice
The fight for justice is at a crossroads. From Project 2025 to the OBBBA, coordinated attacks are threatening hard-won rights, freedoms, and protections across our nation. These aren’t just political maneuvers; they are blueprints to roll back civil liberties, undermine democracy, and silence marginalized communities.
Join The Prolific Circle and Citizen Action NY – Hudson Valley for a timely panel discussion on what’s at stake and how we can resist during these uncertain times. Together, we’ll unpack these authoritarian agendas, connect the dots, and chart strategies for collective defense and action.
