Hundreds of people began gathering blocks from the White House the morning of May 1 as part of nationwide protests against the Trump administration, its policies and the billionaires supporting them in what organizers are calling "a war on working people."
Over 1,000 demonstrations and rallies are scheduled in every state and abroad, with most being held Thursday, May 1 – historically known as May Day or International Workers' Day. The volunteer-led 50501 movement, which spurred other nationwide protests this year, is helping organize the demonstrations along with labor unions, student groups and other grassroots organizations.
One of the larger protests is expected in Washington, D.C., where a "May Day Movement USA" rally on the National Mall is planned. In Philadelphia, Sen. Bernie Sanders will join the "Workers over Billionaires" rally hosted by the city's AFL-CIO chapter.
