Washington: Thousands of people across the US have taken to the streets protesting against President Trump’s immigration policy which separates children from their parents at the border with Mexico. A protest march was taken out from Washington DC to Los against the policy.
Over 750 events were planned across all 50 states under the slogans “Families Belong Together” and “Freedom for Immigrants”.
Protesters flooded more than 700 marches, from New York and Los Angeles and from Appalachia and Wyoming. They gathered on the front lawn of a Border Patrol station in McAllen, Texas, near a detention centre where migrant children were being held in cages, and on a street corner near Trump’s golf resort at Bedminster, N.J., where the president is spending the weekend.
