On Labor Day, working people across Arkansas and the nation will rise up to say loud and clear: enough is enough.
Billionaires and their political enablers are attacking our communities – privatizing our schools, slashing healthcare, criminalizing immigrants, and gutting the programs we rely on. But we’re not going anywhere. We will fight back with solidarity, strength, and purpose.
Join us under the Broadway Bridge in Little Rock Riverfront Park for a powerful opening program featuring local organizers and workers (stay tuned for speaker announcements). Then we will march onto the bridge itself, lifting up our demands for dignity, justice, and economic liberation.
We are proud to announce that local Arkansas unions will be joining us in action. Unions are the backbone of the labor movement and a vital force in the fight for working-class power. Their voices and presence on Labor Day reflect a long tradition of organizing, resistance, and collective bargaining for a better future.
Stay tuned for an official list of participating unions.
This Labor Day, we demand:
1. Stop the billionaire takeover and corruption in government.
2. Defend Medicaid, Social Security, and public programs.
3. Fully fund public schools, housing, and healthcare.
4. End the attacks on immigrants, Black, Indigenous, trans, and marginalized communities.
5. Invest in people—not war and corporate profits.
6. End the war on working people and our right to organize.
This is a continuation of the movement we launched on May 1st. Together, we will demand a world that works for all of us—not just the wealthy few.

🅿️ PARKING INFORMATION:
UNDER THE BROADWAY BRIDGE- This parking location is right next to the meet-up spot and is accessible to those who have mobility needs.
If you start in front of the Robinson Center, you will go WEST on Markham Street, cross over Broadway Street, and take the first right on Bruce Moore/Arch Street. This street dead-ends at the parking lot.
OTHER PARKING: You can park in one of the many parking garages and lots downtown (please see the photo in the discussion section for a map of where there is public parking). There is also street parking available (metered spots are free on weekends).
If you park downtown near Robinson Center/The Old State House Museum/Doubletree Hotel—
Walk down Conway Street (which runs between Doubletree Hotel and Old State House Museum), over the pedestrian bridge, and that will lead you directly to our meeting spot.
Bring signs, bring friends, and bring the noise.
The billionaires’ time is up.
