Siskiyou Democrats Rapid Response Bulletin Board
Are you interested in what protests are happening nearby? Or is there a postcard campaign and you'd like to write a few? Is there an "action alert" where you need to make phone calls?
Visit our new RAPID RESPONSE BULLETIN BOARD often for up-to-date postings. This is a work in progress and depends upon help from all of you to send us information to post. CONTACT US to let us know about your upcoming pro-democrary activity!
If are interested in attending any of these protests, we are working on setting up a carpool process so you don't have to go alone! Just CONTACT US and don't forget to include your name and phone number! We'll work on getting people together to drive to the events.
Below is a list of some upcoming local activities where you can be involved! Although the Siskiyou Democrats are not sponsoring all of these events, we wanted to let you know what is happening!
​
ACLU.ORG'S "KNOW YOUR PROTESTER RIGHTS!" The First Amendment protects your right to assemble and express your views through protest. However, police and other government officials are allowed to place certain narrow restrictions on the exercise of speech rights. Make sure you’re prepared by brushing up on your rights before heading out into the streets.

Want to Find Out More? Attend the Siskiyou Democrats Grassroots meetings on Zoom. They are held the second Tuesday of the month at 6pm. If you are a registered Democrat and wish to attend, CONTACT US here.
