SYMBOL of SOLIDARITY: We ask that you might consider creating the powerful symbol of 3.5% to indicate our collective voice for reform. This can be done on t-shirts, with masking tape, on your vehicle, on your dog, in your windows, on signs or anything creative. Feel free to put on a hippie spin :-)
Our government will come to understand that we know what they already know, we, the masses hold the economic power and the power to force change.

WE MARCH FOR:
1. 3.5% AWARENESS
We ask all people in the great United States of America, as well as Internationally, to join us on March 28th by lining the streets with hope and bringing awareness to the 3.5% Rule.
The 3.5% rule states that no nonviolent campaign has failed to achieve its goals once it has actively mobilized 3.5% of the population.
“Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.”

We hold the economic power. We hold the power for justice. We hold the power to unite and create:
TRUSTWORTHY LEADERSHIP - DECENCY - PROSPERITY - DUE PROCESS - FREEDOM - PEACE
3.5 % is the tipping point. It moves and ignites the masses into activism. It allows everyday citizens to regain control of what is just and morally right. It removes power from the elite few and returns it to the people.
The vast majority of people want security for their family, respectful discussion, nonpartisan decisions, and leadership with maturity, thoughtfulness, wisdom and integrity. Our governance has lost its moral and supportive compass. They have forgotten that they serve us. The foxes are watching the henhouse.
It is time to collectively unite as sane people and overturn the ills that are dismantling our great country. These include: ruling through fear, threats, and intimidation, reducing our educational institutions, making health care unaffordable, raising our food and utilities, advertising propaganda, and bribing the American people with refund checks and false promises during periods of elections.
We welcome all parties and all people who support this. All people for checks and balances in our political system. Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Independents. All Nationalities. Everyone.
Imagine what would happen to our governmental decision making body if republicans and democrats were one voice; bonded together towards humanity over party. Division and segregation would disintegrate; opening up true and honest discussion without extremism.
We cannot imagine what we cannot become. We can imagine what we can become.
It is up to us, the masses, to prompt this.
Our elected officials have demonstrated an absurd ineptness to come together for the good of the people who elect them. Shut downs have occurred while they are paid and citizens are not, rational conversation has been replaced with pathological lying, name calling, and sarcasm. Individual egos rule over democracy and hate rules over camaraderie; all within what is referred to as, The United States of America.
2. ICE OUT - THAT MEANS THOSE THAT ARRIVED IN 2026 ARE GONE
ICE needs to provide appropriate state and local legal authorities the actual names and numbers of previously apprehended convicted criminals and where they are now. They need to provide state and local legal authorities with the names of who they know to remain in Minnesota, verify their convictions, and provide an estimated time frame for this mission to be complete. This is basic, operational protocol. What is happening in selected states is contrary to basic human rights and defined legal procedures and is costing taxpayers millions of dollars.
ICE is not providing safety or working within the letter of the law. The organization seeks to destroy the spirit of those in its path and punish those who have voiced opposing perspectives.
Innocent adults, teenagers, and children must once again be free to live in peace, justice, and security. This is what our great country was founded on and what we have lost sons and daughters to protect.
3. TRUST
Trustworthy, ethical, respectful, non-exaggerated discussions among our elected leaders. It is time to return to professionalism, honesty, and a level of maturity expected by those we have elected to serve us.
We will no longer allow the protection of corrupt behavior. No one is above the law.
4. Voting According to the Situation Presented, Not Party Lines or Fear of Reprisal
Voting and vocalization must never be cast out of fear, potential loss of a job, retaliation, sustained inclusion of a particular group, or ignorance. When such occurs, we all lose. Individual votes must be cast based upon the best outcome for each presented situation for humanity, our entire country, and sustaining our planet for future generations.
5. FREEDOM OF THE PRESS, COMMUNICATION, and EXPRESSION FROM ALL PEOPLE
Transparency must be maintained by allowing people to be present, ask questions, hold people accountable, ensure the morality of our elected government, and maintain checks and balances for the American people. No one should be arrested for exercising the First Amendment.
First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
6. INTEGRITY or DEATH TO THE 2 PARTY SYSTEM
Our governing body is systemically broken and filled with such dysfunction that it is no longer able to effectively serve the public interest as a whole. Billions of taxpayer money is being spent unwisely and mismanaged. Laws are being publicly broken and ignored by those elected and paid to enforce them.
Ironically, taxpayers are paying for the federal government to harm them in a myriad of ways.
Our 3.5% Awareness March is dedicated to governmental reform, as well as to honor all who have given their lives, time, and resources for our valued freedoms. Let Freedom Ring in the streets across this great country of ours.
In Peace, Passion, Solidarity, and Love for All Humanity,
-3.5%ers
Spirit-Led Songs of Peace & Love by the Minnesota Musicians who brought you Laurel Canyon will be played along the way. These will include:
For What It's Worth by Buffalo Springfield
Turn! Turn! Turn! by The Byrds
