The Wood County Democratic Party is planning a “Wood County Hands Off Protest” on Saturday, April 5, at the four corners of downtown Bowling Green, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The event is part of a “National Day of Action” calling people to voice opposition to Trump administration stance on Medicare and Medicaid, Social Security, jobs, bodies, fair elections, veterans services, clean air and energy, schools, free speech, LGBTQ+ rights and immigrants.
This mass mobilization day is intended to be a message to the world that Americans do not consent to the destruction of their government and their economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies.
A core principle behind all “Hands Off” events is a commitment to nonviolent action. All participants are expected to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with them.
