TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) - More than 20 people gathered at the Florida Capitol to join the nationwide protest ‘Good Trouble Lives On.’ Many are in attendance to protest against President Donald Trump’s mass deportations, cuts to Medicaid and other cuts to safety nets for low-income people.
More than 1,000 people took to the streets on Thursday as they participated in a series of “Good Trouble” protests across Montgomery County, demonstrating against the Trump administration.
These reductions will create real challenges for all health systems, including ours,” said Mary Mannix, President and CEO of Augusta Health.
More than two dozen protests were planned across Arizona to honor the late Rep. John Lewis, a longtime civil rights leader.
Protests are planned across the nation on Thursday, the anniversary of civil rights icon and Congressman John Lewis’ death. Lewis famously coined the term “good trouble” to describe nonviolent civil disobedience that challenges unjust systems.
The 'Good Trouble' protests are part of a nationwide mobilization to honor the late Congressman John Lewis and to protest the Trump administration.
