A big part of why we do No Kings is to bring new activists into the ongoing organizing work it’s going to take to defeat authoritarianism. We need people protesting regularly. Calling their elected officials. Joining community groups. Building for a movement — not just a moment.

The next No Kings Day is March 28. Save the date, but don’t sit back and wait. Here are a few things you can do right now: 1) Call your senators and demand they rein in ICE. With a crucial Senate vote expected later this week, Democrats must hold the line to block more funding for ICE and CBP.
2) Join the next Eyes On ICE training on February 5. If you attended Monday's training, recruit two friends to join us next week.
3) Though we will be fundraising to help cover the costs of No Kings Day, today we encourage you to donate to a mutual aid group in your area.
4) Join a local group — an Indivisible group or another local organizing hub, to build community and protect your neighbors.
