Because when the billionaires break every rule, it’s going to take more than a rally to stop them. **Our Demands for May 1st** - Tax the rich so our families, not their fortunes, come first. - No ICE. No war. No private army serving unchecked federal power. - Expand democracy, not corporate power. Hands off our vote. Together we will be flexing our collective economic muscle in a tremendous day of power - showing our unity through a day of marches, rallies, and actions including **No Work No School No Shopping in many cities.** Join as as together we celebrate May 1st through action and community. *Please note: A core principle behind all our events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.*

The vote is at 6:19:56. #VTpol #VTpoli
