About this event
On Saturday, April 5th, we rise up with one demand: Hands Off!
This is a nationwide mobilization to stop the most brazen power grab in modern history. Trump, Musk, and their billionaire cronies are orchestrating an all-out assault on our government, our economy, and our basic rights—enabled by Congress every step of the way.
They want to strip America for parts—shuttering Social Security offices, firing essential workers, eliminating consumer protections, and gutting Medicaid—all to bankroll their billionaire tax scam. They’re handing over our tax dollars, our public services, and our democracy to the ultra-rich.
If we don’t fight now, there won’t be anything left to save.
Our demands are simple:
● REMOVE Donald Trump & Elon Musk from the White House
● REVERSE the damage they have done
● RECLAIM Democracy to serve the working class!
Join us in Tucson, AZ, to come together and demonstrate the power of the people. We will not go down without a fight!
The final details are below:
