March to Ban Bribery: Reading to Harrisburg
Apr

to May 4

March to Ban Bribery: Reading to Harrisburg

Pennsylvania communities are struggling. Groceries, rent, childcare, and utilities keep getting more expensive, but our paychecks barely budge.

In one of the most corrupt states in the country, working people struggle to afford a decent life, while billionaires are amassing more wealth than ever and bribing our politicians with lavish gifts, cutting massive checks to their campaigns, and spending billions on secret Super PAC ads.

We are marching on Harrisburg to demand PA lawmakers stop billionaire bribes, and pass a Gift Ban! We are marching to say enough is enough! Corporations are NOT people! And Money is NOT speech! We are tired of corruption and corporate greed, and we’re taking power back into our own hands! We are marching on Harrisburg so we can have healthcare as a human right, a livable wage, affordable housing, a liveable environment, safety, dignity, hope, and so much more. We refuse to allow corruption to continue being a barrier to justice, and a barrier to getting the things we all need to survive and thrive!

Nobody in power will save us. Only we can save ourselves!

Join us for the entire march - or just one hour or just one day. And join us at the end of the march, on Monday, May 4th in the State Capitol, where we will wage nonviolent direct action and disrupt the legislative guardians of corruption.

***Can't walk much? Can't risk arrest? NO PROBLEM! There are all kinds of tasks that need to be done each day to keep a march running. For those who can't march or risk arrest, we need drivers, cooks, medics, photographers, videographers, and all kinds of other help! Please note on your RSVP how you want to participate.

  • Housing and all meals are provided from Wednesday evening April 29th - Monday, May 4th.

  • Each day, we march for approximately 12-15 miles (with snacks, lunch, and bathroom breaks).

  • Vehicle support is provided to protect the march and provide breaks for marchers if needed.

  • We will send out a comprehensive email to all RSVP's with all other details: march route, parking and transportation to and from the march, events during the march, and a packing list.

  • Once you sign up, our march planning team will contact you via email, and also 1:1 via text. We ask that you be respectful of the hard work and time of our members: please be responsive when they are contacting you.

Book Study: Master Plan - The Hidden Plot to Legalize Corruption in America: Week 4

Join us for a four-part book study diving into Master Plan, a gripping investigation into the half-century strategy that transformed American politics into a system where wealth buys power and corruption flourishes in plain sight.


📅 Schedule

Each week we will meet from 6:00 PM – 7:15 PM. Below are the chapters we will cover each session. We ask you try your best to come to each session having read those chapters. 

  • Monday, February 9: Milk Money, Powell Memo, Secret Task Force

  • Monday, February 16: Corporations Are People, The Maverick, The Machine

  • Monday, March 2: Shock and Awe, Going Big, The Heist

  • Monday, March 9: High Water, Biden Our Time

About the Book:

How did our democracy become a kleptocracy?
Master Plan pulls back the curtain on a coordinated, decades-long operation that rewired American politics—turning corporate wealth into political power, stripping oversight, and decriminalizing corruption at the highest levels.



“You must read Master Plan if you want to understand what has happened to our democracy. Get ready to read and fight back.” — BILL MOYERS
