MobilizeHands Off! Lexington Fights Back · Mobilize**Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them.** Lexington is fighting back! They're taking everything they can get their hands on—our health care, our data, our jobs, our services—and daring the world to stop them. This is a crisis, and the time to act is now. 🚨 **On Saturday, April 5th, we're taking to the streets to fight back with a clear message: Hands off!** 🚨 📍 Where: Courthouse Plaza, 120 N Limestone, Lexington, KY 📅 When: 3:00 p.m. April 5, 2025 This mass mobilization day is our message to the world that we do not consent to the destruction of our government and our economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies. Alongside Americans across the country, we are rallying and protesting to demand a stop the chaos and build an opposition movement against the looting of our country. A core principle behind all Hands Off! events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

From the article: "The Human Rights Campaign ranked Lexington 13th out of 506 cities for LGBTQ rights and fairness. It’s the fourth year the city has scored in the top 2.5% of the nation. Since 2021, Lexington has outranked any city in Kentucky and continues to receive a perfect score of 100 from the Human Rights Campaign.

“Each year we work with Human Rights Campaign who puts together their municipal equality index score or MEI and what they do is evaluate our policies, ordinances, things we can do on the local level,” said Craig Cammack, who is the community outreach liason for Mayor Linda Gorton’s office.
