The 11th Annual March to Abolish the Death Penalty is in Austin on October 30, 2010 starting at 2 PM at the Texas Capitol.

Last year's 10th Annual March to Abolish the Death Penalty on October 24, 2009 was the largest anti-death penalty rally in Texas since 2000.

Now is the time to join the fight to end the death penalty!

Texas has executed 16 people already in 2010 and has executed 463 people since 1982. Todd Willingham was an innocent person executed by Texas in 2004.
