Members from National Nurses United, country’s largest nurses union, reject Trump's destructive policies and demand a society that values care.

Nurses from the country’s largest nurses union, National Nurses United (NNU), will join rallies  across the United States as part of the March 28 No Kings protests. Nurses continue to condemn the Trump administration’s authoritarian politics and call for the abolition of ICE, an end to Trump’s war in Iran, and demand what’s collectively needed for a healthy future for our society.

“Nurses will continue to take to the streets to protect our neighbors and protest the fascist politics Washington is trying to force on everyday people at home and abroad,” said Mary Turner, RN and NNU president. “We will stand with our communities nationwide to demand an end to ICE invasions in the United States and an end to U.S. invasions in countries like Iran. We can stop a sick future built on harm now if we come together to build a healthy future based on care.”

Who: Union nurses
What: No Kings protests
When: Saturday, March 28, 2026
Where: Protests nationwide

As the most trusted profession in the country, NNU nurses remain leading voices in health care, the labor movement, and progressive politics. In recent months, NNU has condemned Trump’s war on Iran and blockade on Cuba, organized dozens of vigils and actions to memorialize nurse Alex Pretti and all killed by ICE, and held town halls introducing our Vision for a Healthy Society, all while doing the patient care, workplace organizing, contract negotiating, and striking that makes the union difference a reality in hospitals nationwide.

The first two No Kings protests, with their unprecedented attendance by more than 12 million protesters, have been among the most visible ways people in the United States have demonstrated their opposition to Trump’s fascist agenda and actions. As his administration continues to devastate people at home and abroad, the third event promises to break protest records, and nurses will be there to advocate for an alternate vision of what our world could be.

National Nurses United is the largest and fastest-growing union and professional association of registered nurses in the United States with more than 225,000 members nationwide. NNU affiliates include California Nurses Association/National Nurses Organizing Committee, DC Nurses Association, Michigan Nurses Association, Minnesota Nurses Association, and New York State Nurses Association.
