Assembly and Moral March on Raleigh

After another year of devastating legislative attacks on poor people and low-wage workers by the NC General Assembly, it’s time for North Carolinians from across the state to take back the mic from the extremists and tell our elected leaders that we refuse to do anything but go Forward Together, Not One Step Back.

Instead of addressing the crises of poverty and low wages, lack of healthcare, underfunded public education, voter suppression, and environmental collapse, extremists leading the NC General Assembly have slashed taxes for the wealthy and corporations, promoted a culture of fear and hate, failed to fully fund public education, and cut protections for the most vulnerable North Carolinians.

North Carolina is joining thirty states across the nation holding simultaneous assemblies and marches at their state capitals on March 2nd as part of 40 weeks of action beginning February 5 leading to the November elections.

Our nation is in a moral crisis, but we have the power to ensure that truth, love, and justice prevail. There are 85 million poor and low-income people who are eligible to vote in this country. It’s time to wake the sleeping giant and use our power.

If you believe in living wages, ending poverty, fully funding public education, universal health care, environmental justice, voting rights, women’s rights, immigrant rights, criminal justice reform, LGBTQ rights, gun control, fair taxes, and a North Carolina for all of us, then join the march on March 2, 2024 in Raleigh.

The Poor People’s and Low Wage Workers’ State House Assembly and Moral March on Raleigh and to the Polls takes place on Saturday, March 2, 2024.

GATHER: 10am on the South Side of the State Capitol in Raleigh (1 E. Morgan Street)
MARCH & RALLY: 11am at NC General Assembly (16 W. Jones Street)
