[United States] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. A peaceful protest occurred in Littleton, New Hampshire on April 5, 2025, as part of what is described as a coordinated "Hands Off!" demonstration across all 50 states. Protesters demonstrated against federal government cuts and supported various social causes, with low severity assessed.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event. Given the peaceful nature and low severity of the demonstration, immediate supply chain disruption appears minimal. Second-order effects would depend on whether similar protests escalate or affect transportation networks, though current reporting suggests no such impacts.

Watch points

• Monitor for verification of the claimed nationwide scope of demonstrations across all 50 states
• Track whether follow-on protests near major transportation hubs or industrial centers materialize with higher participation or different tactics
