Protests are expected across New Mexico in response to deportation and other initiatives taken by the Trump Administration. The protests have been deemed the "No Kings Day" protests. A total of 18 protests are scheduled in areas across the state on Saturday, June 14.

"No Kings" demonstrations on June 14, 2025 will happen at cities across the nation, including dozens in Colorado.

Parker town officials cite safety as the reason the rally can't occur at the same time as the town's largest festival, but organizers say it violates their free speech rights.

Despite peaceful demonstrations reported in multiple cities, violence flared at some anti-Trump protests over the weekend.
