Around 2,000 protests and rallies were planned nationwide, with thousands of people also attending staged “No Kings” events in Manitowoc, Sheboygan and Green Bay. Rallies were canceled in Minnesota out of caution following shootings targeting local lawmakers.
Protesters criticized the administration's actions, including its crackdown on immigration, and condemned the fatal shooting of a Democratic Minnesota lawmaker earlier Saturday.
Hundreds of protesters marched through downtown Milwaukee to decry the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.
The protest coincides with the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary celebration and parade, which is also President Donald Trump's birthday and Flag Day.
In the interest of ensuring the safety of our attendees, including families with children, this joyful and peaceful march to protect every human life has been rescheduled,” the group said.
