We Protest!
Hundreds of protestors came to stand against the recent government cuts and alarming policy changes. Representative Mindy Domb on the bullhorn, and some town council members in attendance. Organized by the Amherst League's Cynthia Brubaker on behalf of LWVA. Amherst came out strong to state loud and clear: We protest. We will not stay silent while democracy is dismantled. And we can organize!
