A thousands of people "declaration of no confidence from the people to the government" demo was held in Helsinki today against primarily cutting kids and youth funding, Organized by teachers, medical doctors, social workers, nurses, artists and scientists, reported YLE.
The march from Senate Square to Parliament had 4000 participants said police, so probably at least double.

While the far-right govt has been cutting kids and youth funding blaming budget must be balanced (it doesn't) same govt lowered the taxation of the rich blaming that those cuts would be self-funding because they create more income based on research citing 1 study for which the researcher then denounced their use saying the study didn't show at all what the govt claimed and can't be used like that but then govt said that actually they only included that research and calculation "as an example" of many studies but didn't give any other examples to prove their claim.

Another issue is the people reject the government for having taken responsibility regarding the Ukraine war, but not done enough for the Palestinians.
"The government has done nothing and it has been a torment. People are suffering and being killed and we are entirely silent. It has been going on for far too long. It is completely insane", said Sunniva Drake.

For the six years Marina, 35, had no valid driver’s license, she felt constant fear when behind the wheel.
She would limit her travels to what was strictly necessary, forgoing professional, educational and leisure opportunities.
“I felt persecuted and had too much fear,” she told Truthout in Spanish. “It was something that impacted all of the days of my life.”
In the rural part of western Massachusetts where she lives, driving is essential. But until recently, only those with valid work permits could get their licenses.

Residents left behind included undocumented people
— some of whom are asylum seekers, some of whom are international students.

It also affects residents who have applied for a new status and are waiting for their applications to be approved.

Marina said the restrictions also impacted minors who were weighing leaving high school before graduation because they couldn’t figure out transportation from their schools to their jobs and had to help feed their families, sometimes on their own.

That’s why she supported the Massachusetts 2022 referendum to change the law, bringing food and drinks to campaigners and helping with collecting signatures.

In July 2023, access to driver’s licenses was expanded to all in Massachusetts,
joining neighboring New York State and now 18 other jurisdictions.

Other states like Wyoming and Florida have attempted to invalidate these out-of-state licenses,
with Tennessee and Florida passing similar laws.

Half a dozen other Republican states have considered similar legislation this year.

Other states don’t invalidate licenses but still criminalize those unable to obtain one.

On May 6, Ximena Arias Cristobal,
a 19-year-old Georgia resident who arrived in the U.S. the year after Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) cutoff,
was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after a mistaken traffic stop.

Despite dropped charges, Arias-Cristobal is still in ICE custody, facing deportation.

Driving rights are also being targeted in court.

On February 12, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi sued New York State for its 2019 Driver’s License Access and Privacy Act
(or “Green Light Law”),
which makes driver’s licenses available to New Yorkers regardless of their immigration status.

This type of legislation has helped immigrants access jobs,
participate in their children’s education, make medical appointments,
and more.

Without these laws, immigrants are more likely to be criminalized,
as they risk being stopped while driving without authorization.

Giving all immigrants legal access to driver’s licenses also means there are fewer untrained, untested, uninsured drivers on the road.
