Court Support: Sloths in MA State House

In April, XR rebels dressed in sloth costumes, disrupting the state legislature to protest government inaction on the climate crisis. Longtime XR member Monty Neill was falsely charged with shoving a State House police officer and now faces charges of felony and misdemeanor assault as well as misdemeanor trespass and disorderly conduct. Misdemeanor charges against two other rebels have been resolved.

Join us on December 2 at the Boston Municipal Courthouse to fill the courtroom with supporters! The trial starts at 9 am.

We will sit together in the courtroom and bear witness to an exciting climate trial. We ask that everyone dress in professional attire and keep a respectful attitude. Please do not wear shirts with slogans or political messages. If possible, please wear blue to show support!
