The East Hampton Town Democratic Committee will co-host a protest with a group of concerned citizens from Springs on Saturday from noon to 1 p.m. along Pantigo Road in front of Town Hall. The protest is part of a nationwide “day of action” organized by Hands Off 2025. There are also protests planned in Sag Harbor, at Steinbeck Park, and at other spots across the East End and beyond.

“Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They’re taking everything they can get their hands on, and daring the world to stop them,” it says on Handsoff2025.com.

The organizers urge nonviolence. “We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values, and to act lawfully at these events.”
