Every chapter operates independently. Some have endorsed the May 1st strike, others haven’t.

Agreeded! This is why we use Open Collective, which we think is a more transparent option. What you mentioned is is exactly the goal. Each local chapter would have their own strike fund. This is the LA Chapters.

A map pinpointing all of ICE holding facilities in the U.S. Headline reads “California’s Shadowy ICE Holding Rooms Detained at Least 17,351 People Last Year”
During the first year of the Trump administration's second term, at least 140,000 people nationwide were detained in these rooms—a steep jump from the 80,000 people held from September 2023 to the end of Biden's term.

Respectfully, you should watch the entire video.
You are correct. It is a dead give away….that we are encouraging people to take their activism past a one day protest. That’s the goal, no?
How will you be using the No Kings protest to actually build community, and make sure your activism moves BEYOND a single day? Sound off in the comments.
A guide on the type of work that EVERYONE needs to be doing AFTER the protest ends: peoplespowerplaybook.my.canva.site

General Strike US is having a nationwide meeting for EVERYONE interested in pushing our movement forward. Mark your calendars for Monday, April 13 @ 5 pm PST on our national GSUS Discord server. Link in bio!
LAPD and policing have been pretty hot topics at the Charter Reform Commission and it's finally back on the agenda this Thursday (4 pm).
The ad hoc committee tossed out the reform proposals, but there seems to be space on the agenda to bring some ideas back.
TUESDAY (3/3) @ 3 PM, City Hall, Room 1010: More changes to LA's Charter are up for a vote on:
- how LA's budget happens;
- the future of City Charter reform; &
- Neighborhood Council reform recommendations by LANCC & BONC.
More meeting & Zoom info: bit.ly/FRLA26
There. Are. A. Million. And. One. Reasons. To. Strike.
This is one of them. We were never fans of Trump, but he did say “no new wars” (we didn’t believe him, but obviously someone did) and clearly, it’s always been about war, power & dominance.
Congress is silent, so it has to be on us.
Lots of very useful information in this thread

Say it once, and we’ll say it again. Get involved in your local chapters. If a local chapter does not exist, start one. Get involved in local mutual aid. Get involved in multiple groups. We hear at General Strike support it when people are in 👇
15 Councilmembers for almost 4 million Angelenos is...a choice. 😬 Let’s choose a future with fair representation!
THURSDAY (2/26), 4 PM @ City Hall: City Council expansion, ranked choice voting, an elected Public Advocate & more are on the table. Show up in support!
Meeting info at: bit.ly/FRLA26
True story: Multiple people run this account, but the person typing this out, my moms insurance company denied her blood pressure meds, so her doctor has to go to the insurance company to argue why it’s necessary.
The healthcare system in the U.S. is killing us slow. Striking saves lives.
The entire photo has a dark grey background. The text at the top is white [GENERAL STRIKE LOS ANGELES] along with [February 26, 2026 @ 7:00pm]. [SAVE] is in yellow, and [THE DATE] is in white.

Hey all! Our chapter is having its second in person meeting. We plan on making these monthly.

The entire background is black and all the font is white. The photo from left to right shows Donald Trump, Jeffrey, Epstein, and an unknown blonde woman on the right. The text in white says [TAKE ACTION, VOLUNTEER TO PREPARE YOUR COMMUNITY TO STRIKE BACK. FROM THE PLANTATION TO THE RED CAREPT TO THE PRIVATE JETS SAME ABUSE, SAME SYSTEM, WE STRIKE AT THE ROOT!] [LINKTR.EE/GENERALSTRIKEUS]
The background is a colored photo of Donald Trump, Jeffrey, Epstein, and a blonde woman’s face blurred out. The text says [Im genuinely confused. We’re dumping Epstein files, parading names, laying out rape and pedophilia like it’s a damn spreadsheet, and then…nothing. No arrests. No perp walk. No accountability. So what’s the plan here exactly? Are we just supposed to stare at the filth, range-scroll, and pretend exposure equals justice? Because right now it feels like the systems is saying, here’s the proof, here’s the monsters, now go back to work and shut up. If this isn’t followed by real consequences, then all this “truth” isn’t a reckoning sets of rules, and the worst people somehow never play by either]
And on top of this, our literally tax dollars are funding these people; whether directly or indirectly
Think of the government subsidies many of these people’s companies have received?
Hey guys! We have a mutual aid request :)
Please read Rita’s story, donate and/or share.

But also, this is why we need a general strike. A country in which leaves its most vulnerable behind, is no friend to us
Everything has a green background. On the top right is a black-and-white photo of Keith Porter. In yellow text [JUSTICE FOR KEITH PORTER] in black text [Sign the petition] Yellow text [Keith Porter, a beloved “girl dad” to his two daughters, was killed by an off-duty ICE agent on New Year’s Eve.] Following all in black text [ 1.

A LONG THREAD‼️
Okay, gather around everyone. Let’s talk strike cards & what WE need to do to prepare for a long term sustained strike.
For some this information might be redundant, but we think it’s important enough to bare repeating, & hopefully this can create a discussion in the comments.

Thank you for sharing!
If you know nothing or very little about GSUS, this is an important read

Stop Project Baccara! 2/4/26 9am!
All Maricopa county residents!
A gas power plant and data center is being proposed on unincorporated Maricopa County land, just outside city limits, within miles of homes, schools, and Luke Air Force Base.
Decisions are being made at the county and state level.

You should absolutely read this.
This is the court decision with regards to releasing 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, and his dad, Adrian Conejo Arias, be released from ICE detention
Intrigued of it all, vs what is actually good for people, and what do the people want. Hence why it’s up to We The People to bring them back down to earth, including the ones we may like.
