*Optional: bring a photo of a loved one lost to COVID to hold during the vigil.*
People marked by COVID across the country will be participating in the first coordinated COVID lobby days to show our elected officials that our needs can no longer be ignored. Monday's vigil will feature speakers, more than 250 photos of people lost to COVID submitted by grieving family members, 609 lights (one for every 1,000 lives lost), a piece of the Rose River felt rose memorial, and panels from the Covid Memorial Quilt. COVID justice leaders and elected officials will address the attendees.
