Hey there! Have you ever heard of May Day? It’s a special day on May 1st when people around the world celebrate workers and talk about important issues. This year, in the United States, thousands of people marched together to share their opinions about some of President Trump’s policies.
Many different people joined the marches—lawyers, teachers, politicians, and more! They wanted to talk about topics like immigration, healthcare, and schools. Some people are worried about how changes might affect families and friends, so they decided to speak up.
At one rally in Washington, a lady named Jennifer told everyone about her husband. He was sent away by mistake, and she wanted everyone to know so it doesn’t happen to others. She said he had been away for 50 days!
In New York City, a congresswoman named Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spoke to a big crowd. She talked about healthcare and how people need to make sure everyone gets the help they need.
People also gathered in places like Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Denver, and more. They carried signs, chanted, and showed that they care about their communities.
It’s important for everyone to have a voice and share their thoughts, don’t you think? Maybe one day, you can join a cause you care about too! 😊
