About this Petition Pledge
Why This Is Important
The 10th Annual March to Abolish the Death Penalty has been held each October since 2000 in cooperation with several Texas and national anti-death penalty organizations. It is a coming together of activists, family members of those on death row, community leaders, exonerated people and all those calling for abolition. Texas executes more people than any other state. This year’s march is slated for Saturday, October 24th in Austin, Texas from 2-5 PM.

Each October since 2000, people from all walks of life and all parts of Texas, the U.S. and other countries have taken a day out of their year and gathered in Austin to raise their voices together and loudly express their opposition to the death penalty. The march started in Austin in 2000. In 2007 and 2008, the march was held in Houston. This year, it is coming back to Austin.

The annual march is organized by several Texas anti-death penalty organizations, including the Austin chapter of the Campaign to End the Death Penalty, Texas Moratorium Network, the Texas Death Penalty Abolition Movement, Texas Students Against the Death Penalty and Kids Against the Death Penalty. If your organization would like to be a co-sponsor of the 10th Annual March, contact any of the organizations listed above and let them know, so we can list you in future announcements.

If you can not attend the march in person, we plan to livestream the event on Oct 24.

If you would like to donate to help us organize the march, you can send a check to Texas Moratorium Network, 3616 Far West Blvd, Suite 117, Box 251, Austin, Texas. Donations are not tax-deductible.
