Massive No Kings protests are scheduled for that day and they are purposely avoiding DC.

Projected Millions Across 1,500+ Cities to Join the LArgest Protest to Reject Authoritarianism Since President Trump Took Office
Jun 6
On June 14, a coast-to-coast mobilization will reject Trump’s $100 million parade and his billionaire-first agenda

Philadelphia, PA - On June 14, millions of people in more than 1,500 cities across all 50 states and commonwealths will take to the streets. No Kings is expected to be the largest single-day mobilization since President Trump returned to office—a mass, nationwide protest rejecting authoritarianism, billionaire-first politics, and the militarization of our democracy.

For a full list of participating cities, event details, and spokespeople available for interviews, visit www.NoKings.org or contact media@nokings.org.

The “No Kings” mobilization is a direct response to Donald Trump’s self-aggrandizing $100 million military parade and birthday celebration, an event funded by taxpayers while millions are told there's no money for Social Security, SNAP, Medicaid, or public schools.

All No Kings events adhere to a shared commitment to nonviolent protest and community safety. Organizers are trained in de-escalation and are working closely with local partners to ensure peaceful and powerful actions nationwide.

DON’T REGISTER AN EVENT IN D.C. We’re making the center of gravity on June 14 everywhere President Trump isn’t. So rather than coming to D.C. to conflict with his military parade, we’re going to be everywhere else to contrast against it. (If you live in D.C., look out for upcoming information on local community-led events.)
