DESCRIPTION:**Join us for our Friday afternoon rally @ 35th Ave & Bethany 
 Home in Maryvale!**\n\n*Rush-hour Resistance Rallies happen every Monday
 –Friday during rush hour across the Phoenix metro area. Check out [RhRR.
 us](https://rhrr.us) for the latest locations!*\n\nHere are the particular
 s for this rally:\n\n🕥 The rally starts at 5:00. You are free to show u
 p anytime\, but we recommend arriving a few minutes early to introduce you
 rself. We end promptly at 6:00 PM.\n\n🅿️ There’s plenty of parking 
 in the Walmart lot on the NE corner. We haven’t had issues before\, but 
 parking enforcement is unpredictable. If concerned\, check with others.\n\
 n📣 We gather at the entrance of the Walmart parking lot off 35th Ave\, 
 just north of Bethany Home.\n\n🖌️ One of RhRR’s strengths is that p
 eople feel free to express themselves. Ideally\, your signs would help art
 iculate any of our three pillars:\n\n* Defending democracy and the rule of
  law\n* Encouraging voting\n* Protecting neighbors and communities (e.g.\,
  immigrants\, LGBTQIA+ people\, workers\, and veterans)\n\nThis approach k
 eeps signs aligned with RhRR’s purpose\, while preserving personal expre
 ssion and emotional authenticity.\n\n**Pro-union signs appreciated!**\n\n
 🇺🇳 Flags\, banners\, and even inflatable costumes are welcome. Some 
 blow lots of bubbles. While our mission is serious\, humor and camaraderie
  matter.\n\n😷 RhRRs are peaceful\, public events. Most attendees don’
 t hide their faces\, though some do\; participate at your comfort level. P
 hotos and videos are common on social media\, but you can ask posters to r
 emove accidental appearances.\n\nThanks in advance for joining us. See you
  on the streets! ✊\n\n**More about RhRR and why we do what we do every d
 ay of the week:**\n\n📣 Rush Hour Resistance Rally began with a clear id
 ea: neighbors\, gathering peacefully and regularly on busy nearby streets\
 , could remind our communities that democracy is essential and that silenc
 e is unacceptable. Over the last year\, RhRR expanded from a handful of pa
 rticipants to multiple locations across the Valley\, reaching thousands of
  pedestrians and motorists each week. This momentum is significant\, as is
  the duty it brings.\n\n🗳️ As we approach the midterm elections\, our
  united mission is to safeguard free and fair elections and promote civic 
 participation\, particularly in local and primary races where every vote c
 arries weight. Our weekly rallies are more than outlets for frustration\; 
 they are consistent\, visible commitments that normalize voting and democr
 atic engagement as neighborly expectations.\n\n🕊️ RhRR is a peaceful\
 , nonconfrontational movement. Our goal is to reach the broader community\
 , not to confront those seeking conflict. When tensions surface\, we withd
 raw\, stay composed\, and look out for one another. This discipline keeps 
 our rallies inviting and helps newcomers feel secure joining us.\n\n🫂 M
 ost of all\, RhRR is about people caring for one another while standing up
  for the future of our democracy. Every person who shows up\, every sign h
 eld\, and every conversation sparked on a street corner is part of somethi
 ng larger and deeply hopeful.\n\nMore info at [RhRR.us](https://rhrr.us).
