Friday
1. Planned Parenthood Solidarity Day
Today, thousands of anti-Planned Parenthood protesters will be congregating at the Planned Parenthood in St. Paul in an attempt to shame and intimidate patients. In a brilliant act of peaceful opposition, the great people who support PP are holding a big party! If you are free, head down there today to show your support for an organization that provides high quality, affordable health-care and birth control to countless women (Including me, when I was a student. Thanks PP!). It should be a fund day of music, singing, and inspirational stories.
For safety, they do ask that you RSVP. Check it out here: http://www.ppaction.org/site/Calendar?id=132505&view=Detail

2. MNeverAgain Town Hall Project
Minnesota’s student leaders have sent out a call to action for Minnesota’s elected officials. They have created their own town hall during Congress’ spring break. Let’s support them by writing legislators and encouraging them to attend. The town hall will be on April 7th. If you have kids in your life who want to make a change, encourage them to attend the event. Let’s commit to attending as well to show our support. This is really exciting!
