The coordinated rallies are callingfor an independent commission to investigate alleged collusion between the Trump administration and Russia, investigate whether Russia interfered with the 2016 elections, and call for President Trump to release his tax returns.

Part of a press release for the event states:

The firing of FBI Director Comey, bombshell news of memos that suggest Donald Trump attempted to influence an active FBI investigation, Senate testimony from John Brennan, Sally Yates and James Clapper, and revelations about the Trump administrations handling of information that Mike Flynn was compromised further underscore the need for urgent, well-resourced investigations. As Representative Elijah Cummings noted last week, this investigation represents a fight for the soul of our democracy.

The march organizers stated that they have several simple demands:

Congressional Representatives include Jerry Nadler (D-NY), Nydia Velasquez (D-NY), Brad Sherman (D-CA, Mike Quigley (D-IL), Al Green (D-TX), Robin Kelly (D-IL), Jamie Raskin (D-MD), and Donald McEachin (D-VA) are reportedly among politicians attending the rallies. Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks will also attend, in addition to tyranny expert Timothy Snyder, and progressive political commentator Sally Kohn. Leftist Sharia law advocate Linda Sarsour andHamilton star Javier Muozwill also be present.

Marches are being hosted in over 130 cities.

According to theWashington Post, there will be a rally but no actual march in Washington, D.C. However, organizersreportedly plan to take anaerial photograph of protesters on the Mall arranged in the form of the words Investigate Trump.

Last month, approximately 200 demonstrators men, women, and their children used their bodies to form the word RESIST! on the lawn of a public park located at President Trumps golf course in Rancho Palos Verdes, to protest his policies and urge him to release histax returns.

The group Indivisible San Pedro organized the event. Indivisible alsohas a hand in organizing Saturdays March for Truth rallies.

Resist! has become a sort of battle cry for progressives and Democrats.

The D.C. March for Truth is scheduled to begin at 11:00 a.m. near the Washington Monument and speakers will include Sarsour and Rep.Raskin.

In New York, the rally is slated to begin at9 a.m. at Foley Square. Protesters will then march along Broadway. Actress Rosie ODonnell and Rep. Nadler are expected to speak there. ODonnell has been one of Trumps most vocalopponents.
