Call to Action April 19th! Protect Migrants Protect the Planet Rally [1]

[]

Date: 2025-04

April 19th CALL TO ACTION! Keep the Protests Going!

Saturday, April 19th, 12pm Bryant Park, NYC

Sponsored by Summer of Heat and Target Majority NYC (an Indivisible & Swing Left group). Bryant Park (42nd St. between 5th Ave & 6th Ave). RSVP and more information here.

In honor of Earth Day 2025 - send a clear message: Our NYC Mayor must stand up to Trump, protect migrants, and fight for our planet. Join us to march with NYC immigration, climate and grassroots organizations.

With Trump flouting the unanimous SCOTUS decision requiring the return of innocent Maryland dad Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the urgency of mass protest to protect our communities and defend the rule of law has gotten even more urgent.

Protest with us Saturday to demand Garcia's return and send our mayor a clear message: to stand up to Trump, protect migrants, and fight for our planet.

We demand:

ICE Out of New York. Stop collaborating with ICE and protect our immigrant communities. New York must remain a sanctuary for all.

New York Out of Fossil Fuels. Commit to a rapid, just transition to 100% renewable energy. No new fossil fuel infrastructure, and divest from fossil fuels now.

New Yorkers won’t back down. We need a Mayor who won’t either.

Together, we can build a New York that works for all of us—not for the tech and the Big Oil elite.

New Yorkers won’t back down. We need a Mayor who won’t either.
