From CivicLex:
Are tech companies censoring people or letting misinformation run wild?
It’s complicated – and so are you. This is the place to make your voice heard without all the labels, assumptions, and screaming matches.
From families and Congress to school board meetings and town halls, politics is tearing us apart. This event puts relationships, communities, and solutions back at the center.
And we’re not just here to talk – this movement is about having a real impact. You’ll drive action in your community and get a direct channel to decision-makers who are actively working on this issue.
Join us for fun activities and meaningful conversations where you’ll learn about the issue, brainstorm & craft solutions, vote & take action, and make your voice heard.
We’ll be providing complimentary beverages and dinner for all who join us! Parking is also ample and FREE.
