5,000 people showed up Wednesday at New York’s capitol building to let lawmakers know they stand united against COVID-19 vaccine mandates.
The ‘We Will Not Comply Rally’ marked the kickoff of the People’s Coalition of New York, a coalition of over 40 groups that oppose medical mandates and are working to restore civil liberties.
The crowd represented people of every race, religion, political background and socioeconomic status. Vaccinated and unvaccinated united in a peaceful demonstration to oppose COVID-19 vaccine mandates.
“Where there is a risk, there cannot be a mandate,” a New York teacher told the crowd. “Where there is risk, there must be choice.”

Citizens of New York say they’re on a slave ship and this is a war… this war is coming to everyone… start planning your missions…
“We are at war for our families, at war for our children, at war for our lives,” a civil rights attorney said. “When you come for our children, you have declared war!”
