Join us in a rapid response event as we hold a rally the same day as the ruling. Please Read Breakdown of Events Below! Breakdown of Events for the day! Starting at 12Noon - 4:00pm, We will be doing Outreach in Washington Sq Park, to build awareness about McCutcheon ruling and its connection to Citizens United.

They can’t control them, there’s no one in charge.” — Diane Ravitch, education historian, on her first visit to Zuccotti Park, fall 2011 “Our movement is leaderless and leaderful.” —Dr. Cornel West, American philosopher, academic, activist, author Last week, a power struggle within an Occupy collective emerged into the public realm when one member took sole ownership of the @OccupyWallSt twitter handle and began to issue calls to action and reflections on the history of the movement.
