JOIN OUR MARCH TO DEMAND AN END TO POVERTY – Madison, March 2, 2024 – Poor People’s Campaign Rally

National Poor People’s Campaign
Saturday, March 2
Madison 

On March 2, 2024, Wisconsinites from all corners of the state will gather in Madison to participate in a day of nationally coordinated actions at over 30 statehouses across the country. Together, we will use our collective voice to demand an end to poverty and lift up ALL of the interlocking injustices that we face as poor and working-class people.
Will you join us?
With 140 million poor and low-wealth people in America (the wealthiest nation on earth) we know that poverty is a moral failure of our leadership and we won’t be silent anymore. Chronic poverty is the 4th leading cause of premature death in this country – more than gun violence and car accidents.
It doesn’t need to be this way, and as the majority, we can make a difference.
