Wisconsin State Capitol
Madison, WI
3/9/2025
Several hundred people gathered at the Wisconsin State Capitol to protest the policies being enacted by the Trump administration and Elon Musk’s “slash and burn” approach as head of the new agency created to cut government spending, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
This protest was a call to action by Indivisible, “a grassroots movement of thousands of local Indivisible groups with a mission to elect progressive leaders, rebuild our democracy, and defeat the Trump agenda.”
Event Description: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are dismantling our federal government in a brazenly illegal power grab, while congress stands by and abdicates its sworn constitutional duty. The time is NOW for the citizens of this country to stand up and make our voices heard. Our democracy is not for sale, it is not negotiable, and we will fight to protect it. Join Madison Indivisible East for a Rally to Defend Democracy and a call to action to resist Trump and Musk's unconstitutional rampage.
