Unions that rely on taxpayer-funded dues to keep their lights on have taken prominent roles in organizing the “No Kings” protests that are scheduled to be held across the nation on Saturday — coinciding with President Donald Trump’s military parade intended to commemorate the Army’s 250th birthday.
The Service Employees International Union, American Federation of Teachers, American Federation of Government Employees, and American Postal Workers Union — public sector unions that collectively represent millions of government employees and rely on their dues to fund operations — are listed as partners helping to plan the nearly 1,800 No Kings protests planned for Saturday. The National Treasury Employees Union, another public union, was “briefly and erroneously listed as a partner on the No Kings website,” a spokesperson for the union confirmed to the Washington Examiner after being reached about the organization’s logo appearing on the protest’s website.
