CONCORD, MA – No Kings / Rehire National Park Rangers @ Minute Man Nat’l Historical Park

April 19 @ 9:00 am - 4:30 pm EDT

Save the date April 19, Minute Man NHP in Concord, Mass.: For the 250th anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, we have the perfect time and place to show our support for fired federal workers and to rehire park rangers as well as to protect national parks and public lands. 100,000 visitors are expected in the park and along the parade routes.

Stay tuned, further action details are still in progress. We’re calling for posters/cardboard (suggested size 16” x 12” max), decorate clothing, wear sandwich boards, or attach signs to bicycles. Slogans should be succinct (2, 3 or 4 words), family-friendly targeting, on one side, the gutting of the national parks, public lands & history, rehiring fired park rangers and, on side B, the un-Constitutional or un-American activities of the Trump Administration. Whatever issue you’d like to advocate, we’d ask its wording be brief and powerful. For example:

No Kings / Rehire Rangers, Illegal Firings

Mad King / Preserve History

Donald So Angry / Protect Nat’l Parks

King dude, you’re angry / Save Public Lands

National park rangers are some of the higher profile, popular heroes who have emerged since the firing of almost 1,000 of them last month, the so-called Valentine’s Day Massacre. While a judge has ordered rehiring national forest workers, employees of the national park service have not yet been rehired. Urban historical parks, including the Freedom Riders bus station in Montgomery, Alabama, have landed on DOGE lists to be sold. The Administration has removed environmental impact reviews from national forests and public lands.

VIPs will be in attendance, potentially President Trump and King Charles. This is a Congressional recess weekend. Stay safe, have fun, immerse yourself in American history, and celebrate the patriotism that is the 1st Amendment. Media might ask what your sign means to you. Prepare your answer: brief, meaningful, impactful like a bumper sticker. Make it an event to remember!
