30 'No Kings' Protests Planned In The Hudson Valley On Saturday

HUDSON VALLEY, NY — Another round of No Kings protests are slated for cities and towns across the country, including throughout the Hudson Valley.

The No Kings movement is a broad reference to grassroots demonstrations and activism opposing a perception of concentrated, unchecked executive power — especially anything seen as resembling authoritarian rule.

The No Kings movement was the impetus of organized rallies across the U.S. organized by a coalition of progressive groups that stood against some policies and actions of the Trump administration.

Organizers said in a statement they expect turnout to surpass previous events, potentially making March 28 one of the largest one-day protests in U.S. history. More than 3,000 events are planned in every congressional district in all 50 states, and more events are added daily. Organizers say attendance could surpass the 7 million who attended an event last October.

The upcoming demonstrations come amid heightened political tensions, including backlash over federal immigration operations and U.S. involvement in an escalating conflict with Iran.
