Plan weekly protests from 1 to 2 p.m. every Tuesday in downtown Prescott
A group of more than 100 local members of the Yavapai County Democratic Party, progressives, Sierra Club members, Veterans for Peace and others joined to demonstrate for the second Tuesday in two weeks in front of U.S. Rep. Paul Gosar and U.S. Sen. John McCain’s offices.
Some of the sign-carrying attendees said they were there because they were upset over the appointment of Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education, a post for which the Senate confirmed her that morning, in spite of a poor performance at her confirmation hearing and a lack of experience or knowledge about public education.
