Mayday General Strike and Demo–S...
May 1 all-day
More info to come about the Nevada City Mayday Demo The Mayday general strike is a nationwide labor and political action on May 1, 2026, calling for “No Work, No School, No Shopping” to protest government policies favoring billionaires over workers. The Mayday general strike, organized by groups including Indivisible and the May Day Strong coalition, is part of the broader No Kings movement opposing authoritarian policies and economic inequality in the United States. Scheduled for May 1, 2026, the strike aims to mobilize workers, students, and families across the country to demonstrate collective power and demand a government that prioritizes communities over billionaires. AnneLandmanBlog.com+3 Purpose and Goals The strike is designed as a tactical escalation beyond traditional protests, emphasizing an economic show of force. Participants are encouraged to refuse work, school, and shopping, signaling that ordinary people can challenge systemic power structures. The goals include: naked capitalism+1 Advocating for workers’ rights and economic justice Opposing authoritarian government policies Promoting expanded democracy and community investment Resisting private armies, ICE enforcement, and militarized policing 2 2 Sources Organizers and Support Key organizers include Indivisible co-founders Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg, who have previously led the No Kings protests, which drew millions nationwide. The strike also has backing from major unions such as the AFT, AAUP, NEA, Starbucks Workers United, and the UE, along with dozens of local labor councils and union locals. These groups are coordinating to replicate the success of the Minnesota General Strike in January 2026, where over 100,000 participants marched and hundreds of businesses closed in solidarity. AnneLandmanBlog.com+3 Scale and Participation The Mayday general strike is expected to involve thousands of cities and towns across the U.S., with coordinated actions including rallies, marches, and walkouts. The movement emphasizes collective action and solidarity, aiming to demonstrate the power of organized labor and community networks in shaping political and economic outcomes. [...]

It’s a powerful reminder that in a true democracy, the people hold the power. We rise together—driven by a shared frustration with corruption, cruelty, and the gradual loss of our freedoms. This movement is rooted in solidarity, courage, and hope. We will not be silenced. We show up for one another, and together, we rise. Rise Against the Regime is Co-sponsored by 50501, Indivisible Nevada County, & the Nevada County Democrats. Meet at the intersection of Brunswick and Sutton on the Safeway side in front of the old Three Kings restaurant. Bring your signs and make your voice heard! If you do not have a sign, there will be some available at the Bank of America building. (Peace and Justice Center is non-partisan and not affiliated with and not endorsing any political party) Don’t want to demonstrate? Here’s a local campaign you can join from home to resist. Reclaim Our Vote is a 501c3 non-profit. On July 27 UUCM we will launch the next Reclaim Our Vote (ROV) postcard campaign to over 940,00 registered black voters in Virginia, a bellwether state for the 2026 midterms. To understand the impact of ROV postcarding, the historic comparison shows that “likely African-American” voters’ turnout in the 2024 primary was 16,992; in 2025 (after our ROV campaign) it was 44,374…more than double! Virginia has seen thousands of its citizens lose their jobs due to DOGE, and a 350% increase in immigrant arrests, more than any other state. You can read more about those stories in this article and in this one. Center for Common Ground/Reclaim Our Vote is one of the few national campaigns that works to turn out a group of voters that the opposition works overtime to suppress, because their vote makes a difference. To do this, CFCG purchases the data used to identify targeted voters. Many of you have already ordered postcard packets of the Virginia General Election. (Each packet has 20 addresses, stamps, cards, etc.) If you want to participate let me know ASAP! We now spend $12 on each packet BUT the cost of stamps go up this Saturday (from $.56 to $.62.) increasing the cost of our packets to $13 each. Packets ordered through tomorrow (7/10/25) will cost $12 each. Packets purchased after 7/10/25 will cost $13 each. NOTE: because we don’t want the cost to keep anyone from joining the postcard campaign we have scholarships available for those who need $ help. To order yours send an email to me at GOTV@uugrassvalley.org and tell me how many packets you want and if you can reimburse us for the cost. They will be available at UUCM starting July 27 NOTE: We will have 3 months to write. (July 27-October 20) THANKS Gail Johnson Vaughan, PsyD Social Justice Advocate 530-277-6571 gail@gjv4kids.com |
