Hundreds of "Hands Off" protests will be held across the country Saturday, April 5, aimed at sending a message to President Donald Trump and his controversial billionaire adviser Elon Musk.

Dozens of the protests are scheduled around Massachusetts, including one on Boston Common, starting at 11 a.m. at the Parkman Bandstand.

According to a statement from national organizers, "Hands Off" is a "national day of action" that will bring members of Congress, community leaders and "everyday people" together to "call on Trump and Elon Musk to take their hands off the programs that the middle class and working families rely on."
