"America is at an inflection point. Our communities are hurting. People are afraid, and they can't afford basic necessities," American Federation of Teachers president Randi Weingarten said in a statement. "It's time the administration listened and helped them build a better life rather than stoking hate and fear."
Protests are expected to occur in major cities such as Chicago, New Orleans and Charlotte, North Carolina, along with more rural and conservative areas in states like Florida, Kansas and Pennsylvania.
