Trump and the MAGA Movement are trying to defund public media in the USA — and we’re standing up to fight back.
Join our Citizen Action Team outside NPR HQ this Thursday, March 6th to rally in support of National Protect Public Media Day and to defend our freedom of the press, freedom of speech, and freedom of dissent from the Trump regime.
We’ll meet at 9am at 61 Pierce St, NE (around the corner from NPR on East Capitol) for an action orientation, and then we’ll march around the corner to NPR HQ on East Capitol St NE.
Trump, Musk, and their authoritarian regime want to shut down criticism and shut down the free flow of information that enables a democracy to function. Without independent voices and media to hold them accountable, Trump and the Oligarchs can flood the public square with their own propaganda.
We can’t let them control the airwaves.
This is a hearing of the Subcommittee on Economic Development, Public Buildings, and Emergency Management entitled “America Builds: Making Federal Real Estate Work for the Taxpayer.”

It’s time or the nation to stop the extremism.
On Ash Wednesday, March 5, 2025, at 11 AM ET, clergy, faith leaders, and people of conscience will gather at Saint Mark’s Episcopal Church (301 A Street SE, Washington, D.C.) for a National Call for Repentance & Truth-Telling.
In the spirit of the prophets, we will stand together in prayer, lament, and moral resistance—calling on our nation to turn away from injustice, apathy, corruption, and oppression and recommit to the path of righteousness, truth, justice, and love. Following this sacred gathering, we will embark on a nonviolent walk from the Supreme Court to the U.S. Capitol, bearing witness to the urgent need for moral renewal in our public life. Clergy are asked to wear full vestments of their faith tradition. We invite all people of faith and conscience to join this prophetic movement and help reclaim the moral center of our democracy.
Gwynne Wilcox made history as the first Black woman on the National Labor Relations Board-only to be unlawfully removed by Trump. Now, she’s fighting back-not just for herself, but for all of us, especially Black women who have long faced systemic oppression and injustice.
Show up, stand strong, and demand what’s right.
Rally after her court hearing on March 5th at 10:30 AM.
This is our fight! Let’s make our voices heard!
