Letter to the editor: All hands on deck for Hands Off event

This Saturday, April 5, please take part in a HandsOff demonstration in Brandon, Vergennes, or Montpelier. This is a National Day of Action, protesting the Trump/Musk Wrecking Crew’s efforts to demolish the agencies of our government that deliver Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, accurate weather forecasts, protection from financial fraud, and protection of our country from attack.

Join me and other members of Indivisible Middlebury for the rally in Brandon at 12 noon to urge our elected representatives to speak up and speak out against Trump’s efforts to neutralize and coopt the press, intimidate lawyers and judges, and defund vital medical research at Middlebury College, UVM, and other colleges and universities. Sign up now at handsoff2025.com.

We can do this. Keep Hope Alive!
