Women March in D.C. to Protest Trump and His Policies (photos)


The third annual Women’s March returned to Washington, D.C., as thousands of activists gathered on Freedom Plaza on Pennsylvania Avenue NW and marched past the Trump International Hotel on Jan. 19, demanding respect for women and protesting against President Donald Trump and his policies — one of several such protests around the country marking the second anniversary of President Trump’s inauguration.

This year’s march came against the backdrop of a partial government shutdown, which began on Dec. 22 after the president refused to back down on his demand for more than $5 billion in funding for “a wall” on the nation’s southern border.
