SUMMARY:Mayday on the National Mall
DESCRIPTION:The mission of Mayday Movement USA is to achieve the impeachment\, remove\, and convict President Donald J. Trump. \nAs a grassroots effort driven by a diverse group of volunteers\, we are committed to making our voices heard through active participation\, most notably at the Mayday Protest Camp in Washington D.C. beginning on May 1st\, 2025. \nOur mission is supported by three main operational areas: Congressional Lobbying & Outreach to encourage the pursuit of impeachment and conviction\, Community Education & Outreach to inform the public about our goals and rationale\, and Art Response to creatively convey our message and influence public opinion and policymakers. We believe that impeachment is the only true constraint on presidential power. \nIn all our interactions and activities\, we uphold the principles of respect for all peoples\, non-violence\, and obedience to lawful orders. We actively encourage volunteerism to support all aspects of our movement and remain focused on the specific purpose of the Mayday Protest Camp: the impeachment and subsequent conviction of the former President. Our outreach efforts\, including our “Art Response\,” are designed to be strategic in breaking through the noise and reaching a wider audience. \n*Refer to the MaydayMovementUSA.org main site for the most up-to-date location for the camp.

SUMMARY:For The Workers\, Not The Billionaires: May Day Solidarity Rally
DESCRIPTION:Across the district — from transit workers\, to restaurant employees\, to federal civil servants — the working people who keep our city running are rising up. We are demanding a country that puts our families over billionaires\, public schools over private profits\, healthcare over hedge funds\, housing over slumlords.\nMusk\, Trump and their fellow oligarchs are creating a vicious race to the bottom. They want to erase our labor rights\, bust our unions\, steal our wages\, slash our benefits\, and take away our power.\nBut this May Day 2025 we are fighting back against their war on working people — and organized labor is the most powerful weapon we have. Workers across the DMV are rallying alongside UNITE HERE Local 25 restaurant workers in solidarity for their right to organize and our collective right to have a say in our workplaces.\nUnionbusters like Stephen Starr and Elon Musk\, think their wealth gives them all the power\, but we know a working class united can never be defeated. We are organizing not just for one day\, but to build labor power across the district: in every shop floor\, school\, restaurant\, and federal building.\nSTOP THE BILLIONAIRE TAKEOVER.\nWE ARE THE MANY. THEY ARE THE FEW.\nTHIS IS MAY DAY\, JOIN US.

SUMMARY:100 Days of Solidarity: May Day Weekend Federal Worker Rally
DESCRIPTION:Across the country—from fruit fields in California to classrooms in Chicago\, from kitchens in Queens to loading docks in Atlanta—working people are rising up. We are demanding a country that puts our families over their fortunes—public schools over private profits\, healthcare over hedge funds\, housing over homelessness. \nMusk\, Trump and their fellow profiteers are trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages\, on benefits\, on dignity itself. They want to erase labor rights\, break our unions\, and silence immigrant voices. \nMay Day 2025 we are standing united. We’re organizing for a world where every family has housing\, healthcare\, fair wages\, union protection\, and safety—regardless of race\, zip code\, or immigration status. \nThey’re defunding our schools\, privatizing public services\, attacking unions\, and targeting immigrant families with fear and violence. This is a war on working people—and we will not stand down. Using the principles of nonviolence and peaceful protest\, we will stand together and stand strong. \nThis May Day\, we will turn the page. This is the beginning of a new era—one where working families lead\, immigrants are protected\, and no one is left behind. This is not charity. This is not a request. We are reclaiming our power from corporate elites\, and we will not be intimidated by Trump\, Musk\, or their billionaire backers. They’ve ruled for too long. Their time is up. \nSTOP THE BILLIONAIRE TAKEOVER. WE ARE THE MANY. THEY ARE THE FEW. \nTHIS IS MAY DAY. \nJOIN US.

SUMMARY:Drag Story Hour
DESCRIPTION:In solidarity with WorldPride DC\, we are coordinating with Rainbow Defense Coalition (RDC) in supporting Drag Story Hour at four of their upcoming family-friendly storytime events. \n\n\n\nMay 31 @ 11 AM – Indigenous Drag Story Hour with Lady Shug\nMay 31 @ 3 PM – STEAM-themed Drag Story Hour with Professor Longlegs\nJune 1 @ 11 AM – Bilingual Drag Story Hour (Spanish/English) with Ricky Rose\nJune 1 @ 2 PM – Bilingual Drag Story Hour (Spanish/English) with Ricky Rose\n\n\n\n  \nSuggested for all ages\, particularly families with pre-school and elementary kiddos! This performance brought to audiences free of charge\, courtesy of World Pride! \nAbout Drag Story Hour: \nDrag Story Hour (DSH) celebrates reading through the glamorous art of drag! At a DSH event\, drag storytellers read picture books aloud to kids utilizing the traditional “storytime” structure\, a format widely recognized by librarians and educators as an effective and fun early literacy experience for children and their families. Our chapters produce joyful events where kids can express their authentic selves and become bright lights of change. We envision a world where kids can learn from LGBTQ+ stories and experiences to love themselves\, celebrate the fabulous diversity in their communities\, and stand up for what they believe in. \nAbout Rainbow Defense Coalition (RDC): \nOur mission is to protect and show support for LGBTQ+ family events in the D.C. Metro area. We shield children from protesters and hate at Drag Story Hour DMV events\, creating a Rainbow Brigade to welcome families. We use Pride flags and rainbow umbrellas to block angry faces and hateful signs\, and play Disney music to cover hateful chanting. We work directly with venues and event organizers to create as safe and welcoming an environment as possible.
