#ReopenAmerica Rally Planning Guide

#ReOpenAmerica Rally Planning Guide

FreedomWorks Activists,

In the past two months, our country took unprecedented steps to fight the coronavirus pandemic. We’ve
done our part to flatten the curve – and now the government needs to get out of the way.

State and local governments must begin to reopen their states’ economies to allow business owners, who
operate on thin profit margins, to put the pieces back together and begin the economic recovery.

We know many of you are already participating in or planning rallies calling on your Governors to allow
businesses in your state to reopen, but this isn’t just about the economy. It’s about our freedom. Both go
hand-in-hand, so if our economy dies, our freedom goes with it and we are here to help.

Below we outline some quick, actionable things you can do to help make these rallies an even bigger
success. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to our team if we can be of further help.
