Peaceful protectors are needed to support “Muslim Texas Capital Day,” when hundreds of Muslims lobby at the Texas Capitol. One key task is to help ensure that the 10 am press conference is not disrupted. Faith leaders from the Jewish and Christian communities will participate.

Volunteers should be there by 9 am for a short orientation on de-escalation methods and are asked to refrain from bringing signs or wearing clothing with political messages. For more information, contact Joe Forbes, muslimswelcomecentraltx@gmail.com.

Location: South steps of the Texas Capitol, 1100 Congress Ave., Austin
