On July 17, 2025, organizers announced plans for protests across more than 1,600 locations in the United States targeting policies of the Trump administration. The demonstrations are set to begin today, with participants including a broad coalition of activists, community groups, and individuals opposing recent legislative actions, notably the ”Big Beautiful Bill” signed into law. Reports indicate that the protests aim to address concerns over mass deportation initiatives and proposed cuts to Medicaid and other safety net programs for low-income individuals. The planning has been coordinated through various social media platforms, with events scheduled in major cities such as Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, and Miami. Organizers, including groups identified as advocating for social justice, have called for peaceful gatherings, though specific turnout numbers remain unconfirmed. Posts found on X suggest involvement from veterans and other community members, with motivations tied to dissatisfaction with the administration’s fiscal and immigration policies. The protests follow a series of similar demonstrations over the Fourth of July weekend, with additional events planned for the coming days. No official statements from the Trump administration regarding the protests were available as of 12:06 PM EDT today.
