May 1, 2025 had historic participation. Over 1000 events. Over 800 cities. Over 60,000 workers on strike. More than 200 partner orgaizations.

The billionaires are waging a war on working people—and on May Day, international workers’ day, hundreds of thousands of us stood together and stood strong, fighting for public schools over private profits, healthcare over hedge funds, shared prosperity over free market politics. Working people built this nation and we know how to take care of each other. We won’t back down—we will never stop fighting for our families and the rights and freedoms that ensure access to opportunity and a better life for all Americans. Their time is up.

WHAT COMES NEXT

ONE We need a united, pro-immigrant, anti-racist working class politics in this country. Not only can workers and our communities stop Trump and the billionaire agenda, but we have the power to make a fair, just society. 

TWO We believe in democratic, grassroots, bottom up organizing led by labor and community organizations on the ground. Sign up to hear more.

THREE We are planning to hold follow-up meetings to discuss specifics, including regional organizing, trainings, and a national summit this summer.

WHEN WE STAND TOGETHER WE WIN.

Trump and his billionaire profiteers are trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages, on benefits, on dignity itself. We are demanding a country that puts our families over their fortunes—public schools over private profits, healthcare over hedge funds, prosperity over free market politics. Join us as we debrief our national day of action and talk next steps.
