| We stay up at night worried about housing costs, groceries, and how to afford enough gas to get to work. And our government funnels our tax dollars to weapons manufacturers and oil companies through an illegal war overseas instead of investing in us here at home. This isn’t an accident. It’s a system built by billionaires who write the rules while we pay the price. And we’re building power to flip the script. Are you in? Take the No Work, No School, No Shopping pledge to join the fight May 1! This May Day, we’re mobilizing across the country. Because it’s going to take a movement to stop them. They want us to stay quiet. To keep our heads down. To believe there’s no alternative to wages that don’t cover rent, healthcare that bankrupts families, and a government that finds billions for war but can’t fund our schools. But they’re counting on us staying divided. What they don’t want us to understand is what happens when we stop asking nicely and start organizing fiercely. When we walk off the job. When we pack the streets. When we refuse to accept that this is just “how things are.” History is clear: every right we have was won by people who refused to go along. The weekend. The minimum wage. Civil rights protections. None of it was given freely. All of it was taken by movements that got too big to ignore. Because when millions of working people move together, we become the crisis they can’t ignore. Find out how to be part of the problem. Take the May Day pledge today! |
| May 1st: No work. No school. No shopping. Our demands are clear: End ICE violence and occupation of our communities. Make billionaires and corporations pay their fair share. Protect and expand democracy for working people. And we’re demonstrating our power on May 1st by taking 24 hours to shut down the economy and flood the streets. Take the pledge — and find a May Day event near you! |
