Around 60 protesters—including at least one with a handmade quilt—gathered outside of the Bruce R. Thompson Courthouse and Federal Building in Reno on April 15. Organizer Kimberly Carden, of Indivisible Northern Nevada, said she plans to organize protests on every Tuesday for which she can secure a permit, for the foreseeable future.
“Depending on what the topic is for that Tuesday, we fill out a petition to go to each senator, asking them for specific things,” Carden said. “On (April 15), we asked them to vote no on the SAVE Act (the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, which would require Americans to present proof of U.S. citizenship in person when registering to vote), and then also to do everything they could to protect the courts.”
