On Friday, May 1, hundreds of organizations including Indivisible/NO KINGS, Unions, Churches and others are sponsoring a nationwide May Day event. For a full list see maydaystrong.org/coalit…. They are asking people to
Pause the economy for ONE DAY
NO work NO school
NO shopping or non-essential spending
Our Demands
1. Tax the rich. Our families come first, not billionaire fortunes.
2. No ICE. No war. No private army serving authoritarian power.
3. Expand democracy. Hands off our vote.
Will it make a difference?ABSOLUTELY!!
Flexing our economic power in a massive day of nonviolent economic disruption shows the power of collective action. For example, last September Disney fired Jimmy Kimmel, but millions of people quickly cancelled their subscriptions – and suddenly – Kimmel was no longer fired.
Spread the word
Pass this information on to friends, family, neighbors - as many people as possible. MAY DAY = NO WORK, NO SCHOOL, NO SHOPPING.
