📆 Saturday, 10.25.25
📍Trump Tower
📍725 5th Ave, NYC
⏰ 12 – 1:00pm

Hands Off NYC American cities are under attack by the Trump administration. The illegal deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles, Washington D.C, Chicago, Memphis, and Portland is an assault on our rights and values. This is not about crime. The crime rates in each of the targeted cities have been going down, not up. What they do share is strong, multi-racial, union power - and city leadership that refuses to bow down. Tax dollars should strengthen our cities, not tear families apart. Public funds should strengthen schools, hospitals, and safe neighborhoods — not build detention centers and occupy our cities. Together, we can win. We pledge to organize together, build local power, and stand in solidarity with every city facing military occupation. Our cities and our people are our greatest strength.

What a day for an enormous NYC march for the country we love. This is truly what democracy looks like — and there are #NoKings in the USA!

Pritzker: "This guy is unhinged. He's insecure. He's a wannabe dictator. And there's one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump. If you come for my people, you come through me. So come and get me."

In a win for immigrants' rights, a U.S. district court just granted a temporary restraining order that would improve conditions for immigrants detained by ICE inside 26 Federal Plaza. Pressure Works!

No Kings Day was one of the largest days of protest in US history. From deep red small towns to our largest cities, millions of people turned out to make it clear that the American people will not bow to fascism. #NoKings

MAY DAY - May 1, 2025.
We Are The Many. They Are The Few.

Incredible energy at #MAYDAY march in NYC. It was extremely powerful and tremendously joyous. There is nothing better than Union energy to bring people together, and they all turned out.

The Trump Administration deliberately doxxed the wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia by posting her home address publicly on X. Now she and their 3 children have been forced into hiding for their safety.

This is not politics.

This is targeted cruelty.
