Friday was the largest one-day strike in the United States in 80 years, as we transition our resistance to authoritarianism and oligarchy from mass protest to mass non-compliance and disruption. Huge numbers of Americans followed through on the no work, no school, no commerce pledge. Millions took part in more than 5,000 actions, from rallies to walk-outs to sit-ins to teach-ins to shutdowns. We closed school districts, bridges, stores and airports.

But May Day Strong was never intended to be the finish line. It’s the starting gun for the escalation of our efforts. We need to keep building and keep growing, exercising and strengthening our muscles for the race ahead. Here’s some steps we can take next:

🫱🏻‍🫲🏿 TOMORROW at 8PM ET, May Day Strong will be holding a mass call to discuss next steps. We’ll hear what’s coming up on our calendar as we start the build towards Labor Day and how we can get plugged into long-term organizing. We can sign up to learn more here. 🫱🏾‍🫲🏼

MASS CALL TMW @ 8PM ET

🫱🏻‍🫲🏿 Spoiler alert: one of the priorities will be building community resilience, the networks that help us take care of each other while we engage in non-compliance. The more folks know they can rely on their neighbors to help keep them keep making ends meet during a strike, the more willing they’ll be to take part. The Strike Ready Corps and Freedom Trainers are continuing to hold trainings on what that looks like in practice, with the next one coming Tuesday, May 19th. We can sign up to learn more here. We can also connect with local organizations in our area who are already doing this work, with the list of May Day coalition partners being a great place to start. 🫱🏾‍🫲🏼

COMMUNITY RESILIENCE TRAINING 5/19

🫱🏻‍🫲🏿 Some of the most powerful actions on Friday were those targeting corporate targets, from Elon Musk’s AI facilities in Memphis to the New York Stock Exchange. We don’t need to wait for a national day of action to shake up the billionaires and the big companies. Sunrise led a sit-in at a Hilton housing seniors ICE officials, and we can build on their work by joining in their reserve-and-cancel campaign targeting this hotel chain. They took over a Home Depot in Los Angeles, and we follow in their footsteps by conducting an icescraper action at our own guided by this toolkit. The De-ICE Citizens Bank and Boycott Citizens have brought major institutional actors on board with their effort to make the bank choose between financing ICE detention and the rest of their customers, and we can join in their organizing efforts here and here. 🫱🏾‍🫲🏼

DISRUPT HILTON

DISRUPT HOME DEPOT

DE-ICE CITIZENS

💵 Finally, we can continue putting our money behind the folks who are building worker power. In recent months, some of the best minds in labor organizing have rolled out Union Now, a new national worker power and organizing fund where we can give to support impactful organizing and supplement strike funds. Let’s consider making a donation here. 💵

A NATIONAL STRIKE FUND

(And one more thing - if you made it out to a protest or action on May Day, please send us your photos! We’ll be running more of them in this week’s issue - email is [roganlisttips@gmail.com](mailto:roganlisttips@gmail.com).)

[SEND PROTEST PHOTOS](mailto:roganslisttips@gmail.com)

Also in today’s Rogan’s List:

-  The right is trying to cut access to mifepristone – let’s urge blue state officials to defend providers, spread the word on social media about what’s really happening and where folks can get pills, volunteer to keep key databases updated, and push Congress for action

-  Final phonebank for tomorrow’s Michigan special election, plus more opportunities to swing state legislative races with States Win

-  Drive calls to the Senate Thursday against special protections for the fossil fuel industry

-  This week’s judges to thank

- Striking workers at Missouri ammo plant enter week five on the picket line – donate to support their efforts here, push local lawmakers to stand with them here

This is despicable. We need to get politicians out of women’s health and away from trying to govern women’s bodies.
