Discover opportunities to connect with like-minded colleagues as we protest against disastrous policies that harm our communities.

RECENT EVENTS:

March 28, 2026: Health Workers Rally at No Kings 3

Over 100 health workers dressed in scrubs and white coats joined the No Kings 3 rally at Colorado’s state capitol on March 28, 2026.  The rally and march demanded improvements to health care access and science-based health policies, along with changes to immigration policy, election-meddling, assaults on world peace and human rights, tax cuts for billionaires, pollution and climate change, and repressive, authoritarian actions by the Trump administration.  An estimated 8 million turned out nationwide for No Kings 3, and future protests (with scrubs and white coat brigades) will doubtless grow larger.

April 18, 2026: OVERPASS ACTION:  

Health Workers Speak Out gathered to inform travelers along I-25 and Rep. Gabe Evan’s (CD-8) constituents of his support for the Trump health agenda, the war, and how it hurts his district.  In white coats, from 10AM-noon, members drew attention from  a  pedestrian overpass crossing I-25, visible near 104th Ave. in Northglenn.   

Estimated views during time:             13, 338!

May 1, 2026: May Day Strong/Workers Over Billionaires

A national coalition of labor unions and community organizations called for protests, no work, no school and no shopping on International Workers Day.  The following photo was taken while joining our partner organizations for the protest.
