Rallies to protest the Trump Administration will take place in Yachats, Newport, and Lincoln City from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday at the same time of a Trump-requested military parade in Washington D.C.
The Lincoln County rallies will take place along U.S. Highway 101 near Yachats city hall, Newport city hall and the Lincoln City Cultural Center. There is also a rally planned in Florence.
The rallies are being coordinated by the county chapter of Indivisible Waves, part of the national Indivisible group which is partnering with NoKings.org in a nationwide day of nonviolent rallies.
The military parade in Washington falls on Trump’s birthday and is estimated to cost $45 million to stage.
