Paul,
The Bus for Progress returns to Philadelphia on Monday, July 15. This time we'll meet a large contingent of NJ activists at Camden City Hall (Roosevelt Plaza) to rally for the People's Platform - $15 NOW, Stop the TPP, Medicare for All, Overturn Citizen's United, Restore Voting Rights, End the New Jim Crow, Clean Green Jobs for All, Not One More Deportation, Ban Fracking, and more! Following the rally, we'll march together across the Ben Franklin Bridge to City Hall in Philadelphia (Broad and Market Streets). There we will link up with the "March for Our Lives" and others, and walk as a unified group to the DNC to deliver our message for the people. Bring a sign to express your thoughts. Musical instruments - drums, tambourines, shakers, kazoos, etc. - are welcome too.
Expect lots of walking! Our march over the bridge is about 3 miles. Then its about 3 more to the DNC. The bus may drive with the marchers over the bridge, but won't be driving in the March for Our Lives. The Bus will pick everyone up near the DNC after the march to drive home. We might vote to stop for dinner. We should return home by 9 PM.
To reserve your bus seat, visit the registration page. We are asking for a $39 donation (discounted for Bus Driver members) to ride the bus, and help with its travel expenses. Proceeds support the Bus for Progress and its non-profit organization. The 25 seats on the bus will be filled in the order donations are received. We need a minimum of 20 passengers to make this trip possible. Please help us spread the word! If we don't have enough riders by Friday night at 10 PM, we'll cancel and provide full refunds. We roll rain or shine! Read our cancellation policy.
The pick-up times below are subject to change.

You are bound to make new friends along the way!
