Tickets on sale now to go to DC for the National Equality March!
Want to go to DC with other Houstonians? Then scroll down to buy your tickets below!! First, all the info:
Here in Houston, a local group of activists have organized three 15-passenger vans to carry Houstonians to Washington D.C. for the National Equality March. Our main objective has been to get as many Houstonians to the march for as little out of pocket cost as possible. There are two different vans schedules to accommodate for those who can only ask for one day off, vs. those who want to in D.C. for some of the events happening on Saturday.
You will be notified as to where in Houston the vans will be leaving from.
