Remember! 50501NNV’s protest will also be a community food drive! Bring your non expired non perishable food and will also accept monetary donations!

Rally this morning, 04/17, at 10:30 AM outside of Congressman Amodei's fundraiser at the Atlantis. While he facilitates horrific violations of human rights through Project 2025, he remains too fearful to meet his constituents at a town hall for fear people will "bully the shit out of him."

If the Trump administration succeeds in defying the Supreme Court to imprison one innocent man in a foreign gulag, they can and will do it to others. Including US citizens. Congress must stop this terrifying escalation of authoritarianism NOW. Call your reps 👉 5calls.org/issue/abrego...
