'Confront Corruption' Candlelight Vigils In Puget Sound Today
Nine events are being held from Friday Harbor to Federal Way. The vigils are part nationwide actions to protest the Trump administration.
SEATTLE, WA - Nine candlelight vigils will be held around Puget Sound Wednesday night, part of hundreds of vigils happening around the U.S. to "confront corruption and demand democracy."
The vigils were organized after Donald Trump's meeting with Vladimir Putin in Finland on Monday.
"From attacks on the rule of law to conflicts of interest, ethics violations and flagrant abuse of government offices for personal gain, the corruption of the American government by the President, his associates and many in his party has reached a new, profound low," the organizers describe on their website.
