Indivisible Upstate SC Hosts “The People’s Empty Chair Town Hall” to Demand Accountability

In the absence of meaningful engagement from elected officials, Indivisible Upstate SC is hosting The People’s Empty Chair Town Hall to give the community a space to voice their concerns, share their stories, and demand accountability from those in power.

This community-led event provides an opportunity for citizens to come together, discuss pressing issues, and highlight the absence of leaders who refuse to face their constituents. A chair will be left symbolically empty for those who continue to ignore the voices of the people they were elected to serve.

The town hall is open to all on a first-come, first-served basis. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early, as space inside the venue is limited. For those who cannot enter, a peaceful picket will be held outside to ensure all voices are heard.

“This event is about making it clear that we will not be ignored,” said Cindy Davis, a representative of Indivisible Upstate SC. “If our elected officials won’t listen, we will still speak. The people deserve to be heard.”

Doors open at 1:45 p.m.
