Organizers set out to make the second No Kings Day even bigger and better than the first back in June — and we succeeded!
On Saturday, nearly 7 million people showed up to more than 2,700 events across the country, in what was one of the largest days of protest in U.S. history!
In all 50 states, from small towns to big cities, people came out to peacefully and joyfully protest, say no to kings and tyranny, and oppose Donald Trump’s cruel attacks on our communities. Union nurses were out in force, speaking, marching, and rallying, from New York to California and everywhere in between.
Nurses helped lead this massive day of action, and we were proud to co-host the No Kings march and rally in San Francisco, CA, which was attended by over 100,000 people.
The people running our country want to destroy our health care, invade our cities, and turn a conman into a king. Not under nurses' watch — as RN and NNU/CNA president Cathy Kennedy told the crowd, "We’re all here today because we REFUSE to let that happen!”
The Trump administration wants profiteering health care corporations and fascist crackdowns. Sandy Reding, RN and CNA/NNOC President, reminded us: "Together, we can show them who’s really in charge!"
We won't accept authoritarian rule that props up wealthy billionaires while working people struggle. America belongs to us. No thrones. No crowns. No Kings.
Now, the work continues. Join movement leaders and fellow local activists after the big day to come together, celebrate what we accomplished, and learn about what’s next.
Thank you, and remember: when nurses, workers, and our communities rise up, we’re building a future that puts people over profit.
In solidarity,
National Nurses United
