Share this with people you know. National media has only barely started covering protest news lately, so we are the ones who are going to have to get the word out

March 4th in particular is when Trump is speeking to congress for the first time in his 2nd term

Some of the original thinking of weekdays for 50501 was to have it on a day where it'd be visible to government workers. I'm not so sure that it should only be weekdays but alas I didn't organize these

Seperate from the 50501 protests, there have been protests on weekends and more planned. For instance there will be a trans-rights rally in DC on sat march 1st
