Denver, CO — For the second time this week, Coloradans are showing up in large numbers to protest the Trump administration’s policies, including the escalated rate of arrests and deportations occurring across the country due to the 10 executive orders President Trump signed on inauguration day relating to immigration.
Thousands are expected to attend a rally outside the Capitol building and then march around Denver’s streets beginning at 2 p.m. local time.
Unicorn Riot will be providing live coverage of the event, which you can follow below.
There have been protests popping up across the country since Trump was inaugurated. We covered a rally at the University of Utah campus on Thursday evening where attendees were expressing solidarity with immigrants and denouncing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and police activity on campus.
Stay tuned in this post for updates on the Denver protest.
