Last weekend saw the largest wave of nationwide demonstrations since the start of the Trump Administration, as protesters rallied under the banner of “Hands Off” to push back against a range of federal policy changes. The protests, which spanned cities across the United States, focused on opposition to the administration’s stances on the economy, immigration, foreign relations, and sweeping efforts to cut federal jobs and programs.

To understand the scope of the protests and their local impact, we spoke with three reporters who were on the ground: Jaxson White of LNP | LancasterOnline, Scott Fisher of the York Daily Record, and Anne Danahy of WPSU.
