Months after millions of Americans took to the streets in protest of the Trump Administration, the organizers of the "No Kings" protests are back.
The next "No Kings" event, the third of its kind, is taking place today, with marches and gatherings planned in cities and towns across the country.
Tensions are rising nationally as the military operation in Iran continues and ICE officers appear in airports. Many states have entered their midterm primary season, which will act as a referendum on the current administration.
Here's what to know for the 'No Kings' protests on March 28.
What are 'No Kings' protests?
The "No Kings" movement originated as a counter-protest to the U.S. Army 250th Anniversary Parade held in Washington, D.C. on June 14th, 2025. The event coincided with President Trump's 79th birthday.
Tanks, soldiers and veterans participated in the parade, but while that event was happening in the nation's capital, an estimated 5 million people across 2,100 rallies protested the Trump Administration and his actions deemed more like a king than a president. The organization referred to the army parade as an attempted "coronation."

"Four months later, that movement roared back even stronger. On October 18, over seven million Americans joined 2,700+ events in all 50 states — a nationwide uprising 14 times larger than both of Trump's inaugurations combined," the organization said on their website. "Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger. 'No Kings' is more than just a slogan; it is the foundation our nation was built upon."
The organization cites ICE operations, election interference, environmental protections, healthcare, education and cost of living as key issues in this weekend's protests.
In Georgia, the protests come just days after ICE officers were deployed at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, and cities like Oakwood and Social Circle clash with the federal government over ICE detention facilities being built in their districts.
