In just two days, tens of thousands of union members, community activists, students, entertainers, civil and human rights leaders, and concerned citizens will gather for peace, jobs, justice, and education for all Americans in the 10.2.10 One Nation Working Together March. PDA and our Medicare for All allies will demand, “Hands off Medicare and Social Security!” To learn more visit www.onenationpda.org.

If you can’t make it to the march, share in the history with friends and fellow PDA members at your own neighborhood watch party. You can watch the One Nation Working Together March — live on Oct. 2, on Free Speech TV (FSTV) with hosts Thom Hartmann and Laura Flanders. The television broadcast will include main-stage speeches, interviews with organizers and analysts, and reporting from the crowd. It will air nationally from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time on DISH Network channel 9415, DIRECTV channel 348, and numerous cable stations across the country.

Don’t miss this historic opportunity. Register your watch party on OneNationPDA and we’ll add it to the One Nation national site.

Let’s do it!

In peace and solidarity,

We’ll be marching to move our money from wars and weapons to jobs, housing, schools, and green energy!

10 2 10 DC: This One is Going To Be Big!
Are you ready to march for peace with new allies, new strength, and the same determination that has kept us out of Iran, that has reduced the War on Iraq, and that will bring U.S. occupying forces out of 150 more countries before we’re finished?

• March with US Labor Against the War and our other allies in the peace contingent. Meet at 10:30 AM at 14th & Constitution Ave. NW.
