The demonstrations, part of the 50 protests, 50 states movement known as 50501, have been planned by various progressive organizations for weeks, with the left-leaning group Indivisible helping organize the Reno and Carson City gatherings.

The demonstrations come on the heels of protests flaring up around the country over federal immigration enforcement raids that began last week and Trump ordering National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles where protesters blocked a freeway and set cars on fire.
