Protests across the nation are planned Monday in response to President Donald Trump’s national emergency declaration. The protests are opposing the order signed Friday that freed up billions to construct a wall along the southern U. S. border with Mexico. The move has divided Congress over the president’s use of executive power and whether there really is an emergency. At least two lawsuits by watchdog groups are challenging the legality of the declaration, and California’s Attorney General Xavier Becerra said Sunday he will « definitely and imminently » file a suit. Some of the rallies are being organized by MoveOn.org, a political action organization. Others are also listed on rallylist.com.
Traveler Hannah Price told Sky News she had planned to return Monday to Britain from Brussels on British regional airline Flybmi before it ceased operations without warning, stranding hundreds throughout Europe.
