In two weeks – January 19th, 2019 – there will be another women’s march in Washington and sister marches across the country.
With Rep. Nancy Pelosi making on her second round as US House Speaker plus the victories by women across the country this is a great time to let our leaders know you support women’s causes. March locations can be found here.
So far Iowa has a march scheduled in Des Moines:
January 19, 2019 • 11:00 AM
Des Moines Capitol
1007 E Grand Ave
Des Moines, IA 50319
Another march is scheduled just across the Missouri River in Omaha that same day for the folks in western Iowa:
January 20, 2019 • 1:00 PM
Downtown Omaha
TBD
Omaha, NE 68102
There is also a facebook pager the Women’s March which may have some additional information here. An Iowa page which includes march merchandise for sale can be found here.
Will the Womens’ March on 1/19/19 be affected by the shutdown?

Michael,
I guess the question involves the Park Service which runs the National Mall being on shutdown.
I did find this under FAQs:
IF THE GOVERNMENT IS SHUT DOWN, IS THE MARCH STILL ON?
They can shut down the government but they can’t shut down the #WomensWave! This is a First Amendment protected activity — shutdown or no shutdown, we are marching.
So it looks like it is on!
