In Eugene, about 1,000 protesters rally against Trump immigration order
In Eugene, about 1,000 protesters rally against Trump immigration order: With a few hours’ preparation, about 1,000 protesters gathered on the steps of the federal courthouse in Eugene on Sunday to rally against President Trump’s executive order seeking “extreme vetting” for people from seven predominantly Muslim nations. The order, which restricts entry for 90 days and suspends the U.S. refugee program for 120 days, led to chaos at the nation’s airports Saturday, which in turn resulted in large, spontaneous demonstrations.
