The April 15posttitled “Steal Something from Work Day 2026: Why Nurses Steal to Save Lives” frames employee theft as a “moderate option” in response to what the group calls intensified capitalist exploitation under the second Trump administration.
The article contrasts everyday workplace theft with more extreme tactics such as warehouse burnings and direct attacks on employers.
CrimethInc. has promoted the event for more than a decade, designating April 15, traditionally Tax Day, as a worldwide day of symbolic resistance.
The group maintains a dedicated site at stealfromwork.crimethinc.com and has made posters, pamphlets, and annual articles encouraging workers to “steal something from work” as a form of covert protest and wealth redistribution.

In the 2026 edition, the collective presents anonymous testimonies from two nurses who describe routinely taking medical supplies from hospitals.
One nurse in Minnesota explains using stolen items, including speculums, gauze, alcohol swabs, and other supplies, to build “medic packs” for protesters confronting ICE operations in the Twin Cities.
The nurse justifies the theft as “harm reduction” and “community defense,” referencing the deaths of anti-ICE agitators Renee Good and Alex Pretti as they attempted to impede immigration enforcement operations.
