Across the country—from fruit fields in California to classrooms in Newtown, from kitchens in Queens to loading docks in Atlanta—working people are rising up.  Rock This Democracy, Newtown Action Alliance, Jr Newtown Action Alliance, and other groups are demanding a country that puts our families over their fortunes—public schools over private profits, healthcare over hedge funds, housing over homelessness, lives over gun industry profits.

Musk, Trump and their fellow profiteers are trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages, on benefits, on dignity itself. They want to erase labor rights, break our unions, silence immigrant voices, & dismantle our gun control laws.

May Day 2025 we are standing united. We're organizing for a world where every family has housing, healthcare, fair wages, union protection, and safety—regardless of race, zip code, or immigration status.

They’re defunding our schools, privatizing public services, attacking unions, loosening gun safety laws, and targeting immigrant families with fear and violence. This is a war on working people—and we will not stand down.

This May Day, we will turn the page. This is the beginning of a new era—one where working families lead, immigrants and school children are protected, and no one is left behind. This is not charity. This is not a request. We are reclaiming our power from corporate elites, and we will not be intimidated by Trump, Musk, or their billionaire backers. They’ve ruled for too long. Their time is up.

STOP THE BILLIONAIRE TAKEOVER. WE ARE THE MANY. THEY ARE THE FEW. THIS IS MAY DAY. JOIN US.
