Bartlett-Resistance

May Day Strong Rally
2026-05-01 16:00 - 18:00 (America/Chicago) | Corner of South Bartlett Road and West Stearns Road, Bartlett, IL, 60103, United States
We have decided to do a May Day Strong “Workers Over Billionaires” event on Friday, May 1, from 4:00 – 6:00 p.m., at our usual location (the intersection of Stearns and South Bartlett Road).
I’m awaiting approval from the May Day Strong organization. Upon approval, the event will be posted for registration online at this link: https://mobilize.us/s/D3bEEc
You don’t have to register to attend, but it always helps us get a better handle on numbers. If you’ve registered through Mobilize for any past events that I’ve hosted, you’ll probably receive a separate email from Mobilize about this May Day event.
I’m pasting a description of the “Workers Over Billionaires” event from May Day Strong below.

“Because when the billionaires break every rule, it’s going to take more than a rally to stop them.
“Our Demands for May 1st – Tax the rich so our families, not their fortunes, come first. No ICE. No war. No private army serving unchecked federal power. Expand democracy, not corporate power. Hands off our vote.
“Together we will be flexing our collective muscle in a tremendous day of power – showing our unity through a day of marches, rallies, and actions including No Work No School No Shopping in many cities.
“Join us as together we celebrate May 1st through action and community.”

No Kings - Oct 18th
2025-10-18 11:00 - 13:00
On October 18, “No Kings 2.0” protests will be held across the country. We will hold a Bartlett “No Kings 2.0” protest that day from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. We had about 500 people for the June 14 “No Kings” protest, so let’s see if we can double that number on October 18.
