TUCSON MAY DAY STRONG 2026: TOGETHER WE STAND · Mobilize

A national coalition of some 200 organizations nationwide is focusing on “economic justice, labor rights and immigrant rights” and is “urging a day of no work, no school, and no shopping to challenge corporate power.” Note that on 1/23, 300 businesses closed in Minneapolis, 700 in the state, and 50,000 to 100,000 protested in the streets. May 1 is a repeat of what was done in Minnesota, building towards an even bigger action in the Fall. - 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. - ICE Out. No private army serving unchecked federal power. - Expand democracy, not corporate power. Defend free and fair elections. Together we will be flexing our collective muscle in a tremendous day of power - showing our unity through a day of **No Work No School No Shopping.** 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. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
