Vigil for Democracy

Vigil for Democracy

Location

Empire State Plaza Reflective Pool
US
Thursday, January 6, 2022 - 5:30pm to 6:30pm

Bring candles to mark one year since a faction of elected officials incited armed right-wing militants to attack the U.S. Capitol. One year later, the same faction is working to restrict the freedom to vote, attacking fair voting districts, and quietly preparing future attempts to sabotage free and fair elections. Americans will say, the voters decide the outcome of elections and urge the passage of the Freedom to Vote Act, the Protecting Our Democracy Act, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and DC Statehood. This event in Albany is one of hundreds of events that will take place across the country, including at the U.S. Capitol. Sponsored by: Capital Region Mothers Out Front, League of Women Voters of Albany County, and Progressive Schenectady.
