Most protests will start at 5 pm local time. In Washington D.C., a flagship rally will be held in front of the White House.

We are disappointed that the New York state legislature decided to ignore the needs of the people and left out key Fair Elections details from the budget, punting the issue to a commission without binding requirements to ensure a robust program.

We know they are not satisfied and will continue this fight.
