This march is also to highlight growing concern regarding cuts outlined in the Project 2025 political initiative to reshape the federal government of the United States in order to consolidate power in the executive branch of our government in direct conflict with the rights and powers provided to us as citizens and to the branches of our government in the United States Constitution.

The staging point for the march is the Northlake Festival Shopping Center. Please park in the rear of the parking lot and avoid parking in front of the Goodwill store. Parking were Bally's Fittness or Toy R US once were, would be respectful to the tenants of the shopping center. We will march down La Vista Rd, cross the I-285 overpass, cross La Vista Rd, and return to the Northlake Festival shopping center. This is a peaceful protest. No violent or vulgar behavior will be tolerated. Be prepared for hot weather. Bring water, a snack and sunscreen.
