"The labor movement in our country cannot advance while ignoring the assault on democracy. We need a national movement that does both."
"Organizers are expecting more than 3,500 actions across the country from street protests to walkouts under the banner of workers over billionaires."
"By bringing business as usual to a halt, protesters will show how powerful the working class can be when it flexes its collective muscle."
"The May Day Strong coalition has been hosting Solidarity School organizing trainings, sharing toolkits and encouraging people to set up their own May Day events."
May Day Strong is a nationwide protest scheduled for May 1, inspired by previous actions against Trump administration policies. The initiative encourages Americans to refrain from shopping, working, or attending school, while also organizing rallies and teach-ins. The coalition emphasizes the need for a unified movement that addresses both labor rights and democratic principles. Organizers expect over 3,500 actions across the country, focusing on issues like taxing the rich and expanding democracy, with support from various labor unions.
