The 4th Annual Women's March Vermont is headed to southern Vermont this year! Please join us on Saturday, January 18, 2020, from Noon-3, as we unite at Castleton University at the Casella Theater for an afternoon of hope, solidarity and action in solidarity with hundreds of sister events taking place throughout the country.
We are honored to host Rep. Summer Lee as this year's keynote speaker. A rising progressive star, Rep. Lee is the first black woman from western Pennsylvania to be elected in the PA General Assembly. Prior to taking office, Lee was a dedicated organizer, activist and advocate for social justice in her local community. Her legislative priorities include criminal justice reform; education, health care and energy policy reforms; a progressive tax structure for Pennsylvania and a $15 minimum wage for all workers.
At this year's Vermont local event, you'll be able to engage directly with speakers and participate in action on the spot. We'll also have a professional live-stream that will allow for remote participation and engagement. Full programming to be announced.
