🚨It’s All Hands On Deck for #HandsOff !🚨

Roanoke stands with communities nationwide on April 5th for Hands Off! — a powerful call to stop the billionaire takeover of our economy, rights, and future. If you can’t make it to DC, take a stand at the corner of Jefferson and Elm Ave at 1 PM!

🚨 The SAVE Act could take away millions of people's right to vote! If you haven't heard about it, this is a great explanation. We have to raise the alarm on this and be ready to tell our Senators and Representatives to vote NO! Spread the word! social.redwine.blue/s/ahHaSZBU

Consider @roanokeindivisible.bsky.social re-ignited! Their Kick-Off today at Appalachian Arts Hub was full of energy & amazing people ready to take action. We loved meeting some of our Discord members IRL!

And shoutout to our littlest RAPscallion, Leila, for helping sling flyers 😎 Start ‘em young!

That overwhelm you feel? It’s by design and you’re not alone, but this quote from one of our community members is a reminder that change happens when people come together.

Every action matters. Let’s keep working toward a better, just future. ✊ DM us for a Discord link to join the conversation.
