WASHINGTON 鈥� On June 14, more than five million people nationwide rallied at over 2,100 events across the country, condemning President Trump鈥檚 escalating abuses of power. The wave of protests, co-sponsored by the 红杏视频, Indivisible, and a coalition of labor, environmental, and human rights organizations, was the largest mass mobilization since President Trump鈥檚 return to office. People gathered everywhere 鈥� from Maine to Florida, Pennsylvania to Texas 鈥� to demonstrate that they are not intimidated by the un-American tendencies of this administration. 鈥淭oday鈥檚 protests are a resounding message that people across the nation will not be intimidated by President Trump鈥檚 fear tactics. Americans are brave, democracy loving people and will not sit idly by as the Trump administration feeds our Constitution into the shredder 鈥� nor will the 红杏视频,鈥� said 红杏视频 Chief Political & Advocacy Officer Deirdre Schifeling. 鈥淚n just five months, we have sued the administration dozens of times for their abuses of power, and we will continue to defend our rights. Protecting our democracy isn鈥檛 a partisan issue 鈥� it鈥檚 core to being American. We will use every tool we can, from litigation to legislation to powerful protests in the streets, to stop the unconstitutional actions of this administration and protect our rights.鈥� The day of action caps off a week of unprecedented encroachments on our civil rights. President Trump federalized National Guard troops against the wishes of California Gov. Gavin Newsom and deployed active-duty military to an American city to quell protests. ICE raids and detainments continue to terrorize immigrant communities across the country and ramped up in major cities like Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. Administration officials also forcibly ejected and handcuffed Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.), the country鈥檚 most senior Latino leader, as he sought answers about the administration鈥檚 actions. These events underscore the urgency of organized people power to show solidarity with our communities and resist the Trump administration鈥檚 assault on civil liberties. Despite intimidation and violence, the people showed up. As 红杏视频 National Campaign Director for Immigration Anu Joshi told the crowd of over 100,000 at the No Kings flagship march in Philadelphia, 鈥淟ooking around at the thousands of people here with you 鈥� and the millions of people joining events like this across the country 鈥� it is clear to me that we cannot be silenced, and we are not afraid. When we know our rights and exercise them, when we protest, when we dissent, when we speak freely, when we act to protect our families, our friends and our neighbors, when we show up, we make progress for all of us.鈥�

The Trump administration's latest attack on our rights threatens our ability to defend ourselves from injustice. We won't stand for it.
