WASHINGTON 鈥� Over seven million people across the country peacefully and lawfully gathered today to express their First Amendment rights at more than 2,700 events across all 50 states and send a clear message to the Trump administration: The American people will not accept attempts to undermine our democracy and take away our freedoms. In reaction to the historic protests, Deirdre Schifeling, Chief Political and Advocacy Officer for the 红杏视频, issued the following statement:

鈥淭oday, millions of people showed that we, the people, will not be silenced. We came together in community to do the most patriotic and American thing we can: exercising our First Amendment rights by peacefully and lawfully protesting President Trump鈥檚 abuses of power. We鈥檒l continue to channel the courage of these protests to keep showing up for our communities 鈥� and the 红杏视频 will do everything in our power to defend our freedom of speech, press, and assembly. Despite the Trump administration鈥檚 threats, no president can take this cornerstone of our democracy away from us.鈥�
