This is the fourth straight year of the women's march.

"Three years of marching, training, organizing, and building power — it's all been leading up to this. In 2020, we have a chance to finish what we started three years ago and remove Trump from office," their website states. "With your help, we can make this the largest day of action the country has ever seen, and demand that our leaders hold Trump accountable, protect our planet, and fight for our rights."
