BASTROP — Voices of dissent will rise again in Bastrop as residents join a national protest movement opposing President Donald Trump.
The “No Kings” demonstration, set for June 14 from 10 a.m. to noon, will bring participants to the Bastrop Pedestrian Bridge over the Colorado River, where organizers say they will peacefully display signs and wave to passing traffic. The event is part of a nationwide day of action aimed at what organizers call the growing authoritarianism of Trump and his allies.
“This will be our second protest since Trump was elected,” said Mary Liz Singleton, communications chair for the Bastrop County Democratic Party. “We want people to know that even a bright red county like Bastrop has concerned citizens who strongly believe that the Trump administration is a disaster and getting worse.”
