Every week, People’s Action shares actions you can take online and with our member group
| For weeks, everyday people in Minneapolis and across Minnesota have refused to comply with the Trump administration’s assault on their freedoms, resisted in peaceful and violent ways, and showed up to care for one another. This ongoing attack by Trump and the MAGA regime targets anyone they believe is an immigrant or is showing up in solidarity to protect them. Minnesotans across races and origins, faiths and genders, however, will not let their courage and love for one another be shaken by the administration’s out-of-control campaign of lies, terror, and violence by masked ICE agents. Our local affiliate, TakeAction Minnesota, continues to organize to protect our neighbors and students in peaceful, nonviolent ways, and we invite you again to donate to support their crucial work on the ground. Join us as we continue standing up for our neighbors, starting with today’s walkout at 2 p.m. local time. |
| TODAY: Free America Walkout! One year into Trump’s second regime, we face an escalating fascist threat: ICE raids on our communities, troops occupying our cities, families torn apart, attacks on our trans siblings, mass surveillance, and terror used to keep us silent. It is time for our communities to escalate as well. On January 20 at 2 PM local time, we will walk out of work, school, and commerce. We will withhold our labor, our participation, and our consent. A free America begins the moment we refuse to cooperate. Learn more. |
| Jan. 21: May Day 2026 Kick Off: Workers Over Billionaires Nationwide A year after making history with the most May Day actions in the US ever, come together with unions, community groups, and working people as we flex labor’s power in 2026 to stand up to the billionaire agenda, demand a country that working families can afford to live in, and get in formation for a May Day full of rallies, marches, actions, strikes, sick outs, and protest to demand we put workers over billionaires in all we do. Join us! |
| Jan. 23: ICE Out of Minnesota Day of Truth and Freedom Friday, January 23rd will be a statewide day of nonviolent moral action, reflection: no work, no school, no shopping — only community, conscience, and collective action. Learn more. |
| Protect Our Medicare—Say No to AI-Driven Denials Trump’s Medicare chief, Dr. Oz, announced a pilot program in six states (Arizona, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, and Washington) that would hand traditional Medicare over to private companies using artificial intelligence to override doctors’ decisions. Say no to AI-powered corporate death panels. |
| People’s Action: Fight Forward Phonebank Through MLK Day, we’re holding Fight Forward Phone Banks in-person and online.

| Help Us Keep Fighting: Donate to People’s Action The struggle for a country where we all can thrive has never been more important. Right now MAGA and the corporations funding them are assaulting our families, our freedoms, and our shared future. We will never stop working for our long-term vision of a healthy, healed country where we all have a voice, but we can’t get there without you. |
