Strike Week is Here!!

Here's a run-down of everything for the week....
Reminder- this is the week the nation is striking against illegal mandates. Please do what you can to show your support! Don't show up if your job is mandating. Personally, I'm choosing not to shop this week as well.
TUESDAY..... To support this effort, we'd like to do a banner hang Tuesday morning from 10-noon on the Bluff Street overpass. One of our very large banners simply states that covid-19 vaccine makers are not liable for injuries. It's actually about 6 large banners to say the message, so we need at least 6 volunteers to pull it off. Please text this number to RSVP if you can come. 435-625-1284 Everyone is welcome, but we need to make sure there will be enough with this short of notice. We usually park at a gas station just south of the overpass sidewalk and walk on up.
Also TUESDAY..... There is a special legislative session. If you can actually ATTEND and go the the Utah State Capital, that would be amazing! Support legislation to not allow businesses to practice medicine (issue mandates) AND please support Dixie! If you can wear red and speak up, that would be amazing!! And spread the word to your family members and friends in the state! They're going to try to sneak in this issue with such little notice! Please CALL your legislators (you have a state senate rep and a congress rep) and ask them to support employee choice and keeping the name Dixie. It's going to cost at least 15, but probably more like 30 MILLION dollars just to change signage!! That in and of itself is WRONG. Thank you! I'll attach both groups (YHF and Preserve Dixie) emails below.
Also TUESDAY....another update...
Mike Lee will be in Springdale from 10-11:30am. If you live out that way, or can drive up, we'd like to get people there and discuss the IHC mandates. Please also call and email Mike Lee.
THURSDAY.... Veteran's Day Parade! This is technically the last day of the strike and we are asking anyone who would like to walk with us in our parade float for liberty to come and meet at 8:45 across the street from the Washington City Community Center. The focus is on VETERANS and their willingness to sacrifice so that we can preserve our LIBERTY!! What is more basic to liberty than the most basic human right to decide what substances go into our bodies? If you can make a poster that expresses gratitude to our veterans for preserving Medical Freedom (or something similar) that would be great!
SATURDAY...... Another IHC rally. IHC is the largest employer in our state who is acting CRIMINAL by discriminating against it's own employees. Please show your support for healthcare workers by showing up on Saturday! If you can go up North, head to the IHC hospital in Murray. If you are here in So Utah, please return to the hospital on River Road again at noon. We had such an amazing turn-out!!! Please come again and bring friends!! Let's keep growing!
FROM YOUR HEALTH FREEDOM......Show UP & Testify Special Session Hearing - Tue Nov 9 @ 1:45pm The special session is here, and a bill regarding workplace mandates is on the docket! Everything we've done up until now has been preparation for this moment, and we've gotten this far BECAUSE OF YOU! Your commitment, your actions, your focus has gotten us here. Thank you!! Now we enter into the Main Event - the Mandate Biathlon: The two phases of the "mandate biathlon" are: (Phase 1) This week's Special Legislative Session Get a doorstop in place so people don't lose their jobs. (Phase 2) The 2022 Regular Session Pass a permanent solution to address all the issues. Our ultimate success depends upon alignment and relentless focus on the objectives. This Week's Call to Action Show UP and Testify on Nov 9 @ 1:45p.m. *** The public has a RARE opportunity to provide comment on a bill that will become LAW this week - "COVID workplace mandates." Come testify before the Business & Labor Committee as an employee / a potential employee / or a business owner - let them know whether you support the proposed bill as written or support it with specific additions / changes.*** The bill language will be released to the public no later than Monday, Nov 8, before 1:45p.m. We will share a link to the bill language via text message and on Telegram channels. We need the following action from every person who cares about this issue: 1.) Read the bill Don't be intimidated by this idea - the bills are actually very easy to read and understand, by design. Any underlined text will be the newly proposed language. 2.) Make your own assessment of the bill You have your unique perspective on this issue - use that perspective to consider the bill on two fronts: (a.) Short term solution: Does the bill provide at a minimum, a reasonable "stop-gap measure" (even if only tolerable for the short term) that will protect employee choice and keep people from losing their job in the next few weeks? (b). Long term solution: Think about your personal concerns - business freedom, employee freedom, patron freedom. What more do you want the legislature to address - either in this bill now or next year during the 2022 regular session?
3.) Attend the hearing and testify on the bill (a) Use your unique perspective/personal situation around this issue to express support for the bill, either as it is written or with specific changes. (b) Note any unaddressed issues that you would like to see taken care of. We NEED your voice! Come testify on the bill language. 4.) Show up for the Bill Vote The bill will go out of the Business and Labor Committee hearing onto the floor, no matter what. We don't exactly know when it will be voted on - perhaps Thursday. Again, as soon as we hear, we will send out a text blast. You may sit in either the House or Senate chamber on this day and observe the vote. There is room for about 150 people between both chambers. Thank you SO MUCH for all you are doing! We have made it this far BECAUSE OF YOU! Let's keep going!
Watch Telegram and other channels for the bill language, TODAY, Monday, 11.8.21.
