Our #HandsOffTX Capitol Sit-In has been going strong since MAYDAY May 1, 2025!
Join us Friday, May 9 in SILENT SOLIDARITY for a nonviolent protest of the Trump regime and TX GOP capitulation…
Vouchers, 10 commandments, mass shootings in our schools. How many times has the TX GOP violated our constitution & spent public tax funds on the dangerous & un-American MAGA agenda this TX Legislative session?
WHEN: Friday, May 9 from 5 - 7 PM (join us anytime from 7 - 7 on Friday but the big crowd will be 5 - 7)
WHERE: TX Capitol Rotunda (inside the main building not the rotundas on E2)
BRING: 3 friends & your creative protest signs (No sticks longer than 12 inches are allowed by Capitol DPS)
This is a nonviolent silent solidarity action. To support our cause please bring your strong and silent support!
KEEP IN MIND: To attend you will be passing through Capitol Security checkpoint metal detectors. Eating in the rotunda is OKAY! Soliciting or taking donations on TX Capitol grounds is not allowed by DPS.
PARKING: Please park at the Capitol Visitors Parking Garage (free for the first 2 hours), or park on the street in the neighborhoods west of the TX Capitol using the Park ATX app with discount codes: FREE15ATX1, FREE15ATX2
