Second Trump Administration

The Hands Off protests launched across the United States on April 5, 2025, in what is currently the largest one-day, nationwide display of public resistance against the second administration of President Donald Trump.[1] Organized under the "Hands Off!" banner, demonstrations voicing opposition to the administration's policies[2] occurred in over 1,400 locations[3] across all 50 states,[1][2][4] drawing tens of thousands of participants in major cities like Washington D.C.,[4] with CNN estimating a total of "millions" of participants.[3] According to coordinators, the protests involved a coalition of over 150[4] progressive,[4][5] labor union,[2][5] pro-democracy,[2] civil rights,[2] LGBTQ+,[2][3] and women's rights[3] groups.[6]

The rallies protested a wide range of administration policies,[1] including newly imposed global tariffs causing economic turmoil,[5] significant cuts to government agencies and the federal workforce spearheaded by Elon Musk,[2] immigration raids perceived as disorganized and politically-motivated,[1] rollbacks on LGBTQ+ rights,[2] potentially harmful changes to Social Security,[5] and cuts to healthcare funding and research.[5] Protesters voiced broader concerns about democratic backsliding[5], growing authoritarianism, and the administration's perceived orientation to the interests of billionaires over American workers,[5] framing their actions as a defense of American democracy[2] and economic well-being.[4]

Overview

The Hands Off protests were led by a nationwide coalition of organizations, including civil rights organizations, veterans, women's rights groups, labor unions, and LGBTQ+ advocates, for example Indivisible.[3] The protests were in response to what the organisers saw as the administration's overreach on many issues: NATO; schools; libraries; courts; veteran services; fair elections; transgender rights; Social Security; Medicare; Medicaid; the federal workforce; abortion rights; and many others.[4] In a document, organizers said that they had three demands: "an end to the billionaire takeover and rampant corruption of the Trump administration; an end to slashing federal funds for Medicaid, Social Security, and other programs working people rely on; and an end to the attacks on immigrants, trans people, and other communities."[3]

Protesters in Washington, D.C.

While the Hands Off protests were not the first demonstrations against Trump's second presidency, they were described as the first mass mobilization comparable to the 2017 Women's March and the 2020 George Floyd protests.[7] In contrast to protests during Trump's first term, which focused on Washington D.C., organizers of the Hands Off protests tried to spread them throughout the US.[4] Protests took place in many locations, including state capitols, federal buildings, congressional offices, Social Security headquarters, parks and city halls.[4] According to organizers, many of the smaller local rallies were formed organically by neighbors and friends.[4]

Protesters at the Colorado State Capitol in Denver

Organizers estimated that around 100,000 people attended the D.C. rally, ten times more than they had expected.[4] Speakers at the rally included several Democratic members of Congress and the president of the American Federation of Government Employees, Everett Kelley, among others.[4] CNN estimated the total number of protesters as "millions".[3]
