Join We the People in DC on July 4th

About We The People 250

We The People 250 is a coalition convening a March on Washington on July 4, 2026 to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence. Bringing together movements and organizations from across the country, the march is a peaceful, people-powered stand against authoritarianism and political violence, and a demand that leaders in every party stop accommodating it. The coalition takes its name from the first three words of the Constitution: We the People.

Together, we will mobilize a 700 foot We the People banner, a symbol of our common purpose. This image, created by Backbone Campaign, has toured the country collecting tens of thousands of signatures, appeared in multiple marches and actions, and has become an icon of our collective resistance and resilience. (For more on the history of this interactive banner check out this We the People story map.) 

We the People includes you. 

We cannot do this without people like you, standing up and stepping up to join this mass action.

The event is free and open to the public. Organizers note that while the march is peaceful, it is geared toward adults given the government’s violent posture. They encourage participants to bring friends and fellow community members rather than young children. Attendees are advised to prepare for a July afternoon in Washington—water, sunscreen, a hat, and comfortable walking shoes—and to arrive at the meeting point by noon. Signs, banners, and flags are welcome; organizers ask everyone to keep the march peaceful and to speak their minds. Donations from supporters help cover the costs of staging the march; no contribution is required to take part.

The confirmed meeting location and full march route will be announced as they are finalized.
