St. Mary's County May Day 2026: Workers Over Billionaires
May Day Strong
No Work No School No Corporate-Owned Shopping.
Whether you're a teacher in Idaho, a bus driver in New York, or a grocery store cashier in Maryland, you are under attack from billionaires who have bought off our politicians and rigged the system to crush working-class families.
Billionaire profiteers are defunding our schools, privatizing public services, attacking unions, and targeting immigrant families with fear and violence. They're trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages, on benefits, on dignity itself.
We are drawing on the legacy of our labor and community movements to create a better future for us all. Join the Education Association of St. Mary's County, St. Mary's County Indivisible and other local unions on May 1, as we flex our collective muscle legally, peacefully, and in unity.
Our Demands for May 1st
- Tax the rich so our families, not their fortunes, come first.
- Stop the billionaire takeover & rampant corruption of this administration.
- Protect and defend Medicaid, Social Security, and other programs working people rely on.
- Fully fund public schools, healthcare, and housing for all.
- No ICE. No war. No private army serving unchecked federal power.
- Expand democracy, not corporate power. Hands off our vote.
- Stop the attacks on our communities, including policies targeting immigrants, people of color, Native people, people with disabilities, and those who identify as LGBTQ+.
