Activists To Converge At Trump Golf Course For March Saturday

BEDMINSTER, NJ — Activists will protest at Trump National Golf Course Saturday to demand an impartial investigation of Russia's alleged role in the general election as part of The March For Truth.

SOMA Action, NJ Working Families, Action Together New Jersey and We The People NJ7, and a dozen other groups will gather at at 1005 Route 28 in Branchburg and protest as they drive by the golf course on the way to a rally in River Road Park in Bedminster.

The rally at River Road Park will be from 11 to 11:30 a.m. followed by a march to the Bedminster library. A roadside demonstration will be from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Congressman Bill Pascrell (NJ-9), who has lead an effort to force Trump to release his tax returns, is scheduled to appear.

"We demand that our elected officials listen to us, their constituents, and demand that we find out the truth from a nonpartisan commission," said Uyen Khoung, executive director of Action Together New Jersey. "We want to know if there are any conflicts of interest to the business dealings that could compromise how [the president] carries out his duties to the American taxpayers, and we will only know that if we can see his tax returns."

The March for Truth is a series of events planned across the United States and Europe demanding that government leaders defend the "rule of law," investigate alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election and investigate the president's motives for possibly interfering with the investigation.

Action Together New Jersey is a grassroots nonprofit that fights for civil liberties, social justice and protection of the environment.
