Hands Off 2025 April 5 protest: 'Millions' across America 'mobilising' for anti-Trump and Elon Musk rally that could be 'pivotal' - how to find list of protests taking place

On Saturday 5 April a coordinated series of protests opposing the policies and actions of the Trump administration will take place in several cities and towns in America. On Facebook one supporter of the protest wrote: “This movement is a response to recent executive orders and policy changes that many believe threaten democratic institutions and civil liberties. The protests aim to demonstrate widespread public dissent and to advocate for the preservation of democratic values.”.

The initiative has been dubbed “Hands Off,” spearheaded by the Indivisible movement. The Indivisible movement will lead the main demonstration to be held in Washington, DC. Participants will gather at Sylvan Theater in the capital, near the Washington Monument, at 1 p.m.

Indivisible is a progressive movement and organisation in the United States initiated in 2016 as a reaction to the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States. The nationwide protests spearheaded by the movement is in response to the cuts promoted by the Trump administration and the Department of Government Efficiency headed by Elon Musk.

On Reddit one user said that the protest could be ‘pivotal’. The user wrote: “I think, that if we have a couple million people actually turn out in DC, there's a good chance April 5th could be a pivotal day in history.”
