PLEASE mark your calendar for an important collaborative event that Purple Line NOW is organizing along with a coalition of organizations including Action Committee for Transit, CASA and the Fair Development Coalition, Chesapeake Climate Action Network, Coalition for Smarter Growth, DC Area Ironworkers Movement for Justice, Laborers Local 11, Purple Line Corridor Coalition, Sierra Club, City of Takoma Park, and Washington Area Bicyclist Association. More organizations will be added as they accept our invitation.

We ask you to gather at the brand new downtown Silver Spring Library (900 Wayne Avenue, Silver Spring, MD 20910) at 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday, May 2 for a press conference - media is invited. We are working on the program right now and will send updates as the event comes together, but we ask you to join us that morning to show your support to make sure we send a clear message that we want the Purple Line back on track.
