Jean-Luc Melenchon’s leftist political movement France Insoumise and the CGT union will be the strongest political and trade union forces among those promoting Saturday’s mobilizations, but the list of those who are organizing the People’s Flood is long: smaller unions and political parties, alter-globalist movements like the ATTAC, feminist associations, environmentalists, those who strive to welcome immigrants, and others.

The reason for their appeal is as follows, as in the case of social networks in street brochures: "Because Macron, his government and the great employers' MEDEF are trying to impose a radical reconfiguration of French society: the policy of cuts, the destruction of workers' rights, the establishment of the selection in access to the university, the elimination of public services, the worsening of the situation of the unemployed, the aggravation of inequalities in relations with the justice, the reform of fiscal policies in favor of the rich, the intensification of the repression of immigrants, the secrecy of business over the right to information, the incorporation of the emergency decree into ordinary legislation, the youth movements of the poor neighborhoods and the crushing of the women, without forgetting the equality of money among the main actors."

They call for mobilization to show Macron and the government that it will not be able to isolate and easily control the movements so far and force them to retreat from the anti-social policies that are being put in place.
