Thousands Rally Nationwide for Justice, Workers' Rights on May Day

News summary

On May Day, thousands of people across the United States rallied to protest the Trump administration's policies, with major demonstrations in cities such as Baltimore, Washington, Hendersonville, and Lawrence. Protesters, including labor unions, teachers, immigrant rights advocates, and community groups, voiced opposition to policies they say benefit billionaires at the expense of working families, threaten democracy, and target immigrants and federal workers. Many rallies highlighted concerns over mass ICE detentions, funding cuts to public services, and actions perceived as undermining the rule of law and constitutional rights. Notable figures, including U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar, criticized the administration for eliminating oversight and enabling corporate exploitation of workers. Organizers hoped to mobilize unprecedented numbers, citing the historical significance of May Day for labor rights and democracy. The protests reflected a broad, energized coalition demanding investment in healthcare, education, and housing instead of austerity and corporate profit.
