Protestors walk the Esplanade in Chico, Calif. on March 28, 2026.

Thousands gathered along the Esplanade and marched toward downtown Chico on Saturday morning to protest President Donald Trump and his administration’s policies, including the government shutdown, immigration policies and the war with Iran.

Marches took place today all over the United States as part of a third ‘No Kings’ day, which made its way through major cities and small towns, including many in the North State.
