‘No Kings’ rally planned March 28 at North Dakota Capitol

A volunteer-organized “No Kings” rally is scheduled from 1 to 4 p.m. CDT on Saturday, March 28, at the North Dakota State Capitol in Bismarck, according to event organizers. The event will take place at 600 E. Boulevard Ave and is part of a nationwide mobilization, organizers said.

“We are standing together to demand an immediate end to militarized ICE raids, the removal of masked federal forces from our communities, and a total overhaul of our immigration system to ensure human rights and due process for all,” organizers wrote in  event materials, which also mention accountability related to the Epstein files and the defense of democracy and civil rights.

Organizers said the rally will include a fundraising effort and in-kind donation drive for Bismarck Global Neighbors, which supports new Americans relocating to North Dakota. Suggested donations include household items such as toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap and diapers, according to the event information. Organizers said the event follows a commitment to nonviolent action and asked participants to act lawfully and not bring weapons.
