Tear gas was fired into a crowd of protesters in Las Vegas. At least eight people in Seattle were arrested as a protest was declared illegal. Police detained 10 people in another day of protest in New York.
These are just some of the coast-to-coast rallies on Wednesday in the growing movement to oppose the U.S. government’s immigration policies as ICE agents continue to carry out raids on suspected undocumented migrants across the country.
Protests also broke out in Los Angeles, the epicenter of the country’s attention, after unrest and curfews followed ICE raids in the city on Friday. More than 200 people have been arrested in Los Angeles this week, police said.
Major rallies are also expected nationwide on Saturday to coincide with President Donald Trump’s military parade.
