 May 1, 2026 | INTERNATIONAL WORKERS’ DAY | May Day protests are expected across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia on May 1 as organizers call for protests, rallies, marches, and walkouts tied to labor and immigration rights. May Day, also known as International Workers' Day, commemorates the efforts made to improve workers' rights. It's a date historically linked to labor movements and protests around the world, though it's not a federal holiday in the United States. May 1 protests — and some May 2 protests and on May 3 — are the latest nationwide movements following recent "No Kings" protests, with organizers including 50501 and Indivisible encouraging supporters to skip work, school, and shopping as part of a coordinated effort nationwide, though turnout, timing, and themes are expected to vary by location.
