On February 5, 2025, a series of coordinated protests are planned across all 50 U.S. states, organized by the 50501 Movement—standing for “50 states, 50 protests, one day.” These demonstrations aim to express opposition to President Donald Trump’s recent policies and executive orders, particularly those related to immigration and the pardoning of January 6 participants.

The protests are scheduled to take place at state capitol buildings nationwide, with specific times varying by location. In Omaha, Nebraska, participants are expected to gather at the Nebraska State Capitol in Lincoln. While the exact time for the Nebraska protest hasn’t been specified, many events are planned for noon local time. It’s advisable to check local news sources or the 50501 Movement’s social media channels for the most up-to-date information.

The movement has gained significant traction on social media platforms, with organizers emphasizing that it is a grassroots initiative emerging from communities across the United States. Participants are encouraged to assemble peacefully and voice their concerns regarding the current administration’s actions. (gvwire.com)
