May Day protests and economic boycott planned across the United States
On May 1st (International Workers' Day), tens of thousands of people in the US are expected to participate in coordinated protests, boycotts, and walkouts organized by the May Day Strong coalition and other activist groups. The action targets Trump administration policies and what organizers characterize as corporate influence in government. The Mother Jones article contextualizes this within labor history and debates whether the action constitutes a true general strike.
