đ Iowa State Capitol â Sidewalks Only
đď¸ Friday, April 19, 2025 | â° 12:00â2:00 PM
Our voices were loud on April 5âand now weâre back for round two. Hands Off: It Takes 2 is the next wave in our growing protest against the attacks on our democracy, our rights, and our people. From reproductive freedom to LGBTQ+ protections, from the economy to veteransâ careâthis administration keeps putting hands where they donât belong.
This peaceful protest will take place on the public sidewalks surrounding the Iowa State Capitol. To remain within your legal right to protest in Iowa, please remember:
- Stay on the sidewalks at all times
- Do not block pedestrian traffic
- Be respectful and firmâwe lead with strength, not violence
Bring signs, friends, and your voice. This protest belongs to all of usâespecially the people of 50501, who know that real change starts at the grassroots.
đĽ Letâs make some noise that echoes through the dome. Because it still takes twoâyou and your voiceâto defend our democracy.

From the first âHands Offâ to protest #2
It takes the peopleâme and you!
â It takes two to make a change come right
It takes two to keep up the fight
It takes two and a storm of will
It takes twoâare you in still?
đ¤ We bring the thunder, we bring the rain
We’re here for justice, we name the pain
From seniors, vets to LGBTQâ
If youâre hurt by this admin, weâre fightinâ for you.
So lace your boots, bring your sign

Itâs peaceful, proud, and powered by peeps
From the grassroots right up through the streets!
