On May 1, 2025, demonstrators gathered outside the Social Security Administration in Miami to rally for immigrant rights, workers' rights, and the protection of Social Security. Approximately 150 protesters voiced their concerns surrounding the Trump administration's policies, particularly its impact on social programs. The event was organized by local groups, including Miami Indivisible, coinciding with International Workers' Day. Activists highlighted the urgency of standing up for worker support during turbulent political times, reflecting a broader dissatisfaction with the administration's first 100 days of second term governance.
"During the period of time that we're in now, it's vitally important that we stand up and show up everywhere we can these days," Antonio White of United Teachers of Dade told the Miami Herald.
"We all know that when workers don't have the support or somebody to keep the playing field balanced, we all get out of control," added White, 63. "We've had 100 days of nothing but chaos."
