Where ‘No Kings’ protests are happening in the suburbs Saturday

Protesters at more than 1,800 locations nationwide, including in the suburbs, will mobilize Saturday for “No Kings” rallies in opposition of President Donald Trump’s policies.

The mass protest will occur on the same day as a military parade marking the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary, which coincides with Trump’s 79th birthday, in Washington, D.C.

Organizers say they expect millions to come together across the country in peaceful protest and a commitment to nonviolence.

The event is expected to be the largest single-day protest since Trump returned to office, organizers said. It rejects what they described as the Trump administration’s authoritarianism, billionaire-first policies and the militarization of the nation’s democracy.
