Hands Off! National Day of Action

On Saturday, April 5, 2025, Third Act joins the Hands Off! National Day of Action to stand up against those who believe they can take whatever they want—our democracy, our future, our rights.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They’re grabbing everything they can, and it’s up to us to push back. On April 5th, we’ll take to the streets with a clear message: Hands off!

Third Act is proud to partner in this effort alongside Indivisible, MoveOn, and other groups.

Our role is to bring the power and wisdom of elders to this movement, making sure our voices are heard loud and clear. Our goal is to promote and mobilize attendance at these events happening across the country. There are a variety of ways that volunteers and Working Groups can be involved: host an event, promote participation in an event hosted by others, or simply share the sign-up page to the website.

Third Act brings a unique and powerful perspective to this movement. As elders, we have lived through history, fought for democracy, defended Social Security, and marched for the environment. Our presence at these events reminds the world that we have seen what happens when power goes unchecked—and we refuse to let history repeat itself. By showing up and speaking out, we bring credibility, experience, and an unshakable commitment to protecting the future for generations to come.

Use these messages––and come up with your own––in your homemade signs, social media posts, and outreach:

 

• I ♥️ Social Security
• We Invested In Our Benefits
• Old Enough to Know It’s Far Easier to Break Things than to Build Them.
• This is not about Right or Left, this is about right and wrong!
• My Hair Was Not This Gray Until Musk Showed Up.
• We Marched for the Environment on the First Earth Day; It’s Crazy We Have to Do It Again.
