Organizers taking a stand against President Donald Trump’s policies are planning another round of No Kings protests across multiple northern Illinois cities on Saturday.
“As President Trump escalates his attempts to control us, it is on us, the people, to show that we will fight to protect one another and our country,” No Kings organizers wrote on the official website. “If he believes we will roll over and allow him to take our freedoms, he is mistaken. We are coming together again on March 28 because we know we can overcome this repression when we unite.”
Similar protests have erupted with regularity since Trump entered his second term in office in January 2025. Some organizers have opposed federal policies they argue unfairly or illegally target immigrants, women, higher education and marginalized communities.
Protests are planned in DeKalb, Kane, Kendall, McHenry, Will, DuPage, Lake, Cook, Lee, La Salle, Kankakee, Whiteside and Ogle counties.
