Protesters plan to be along Interstate 35 during evening traffic today to further denounce actions against free speech and assembly in what organizers say is a coordinated effort along the highway that stretches from Minnesota to the Texas border with Mexico.

A press release announcing the effort was sent out late Wednesday night alerting the media of the event, scheduled for 5 p.m. to 6 p.m.

The protest action along I-35 is organized by Democracy Bridge Minneapolis and community groups across Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas, according to the press release. The Temple protest is organized by Indivisible CentTex.

Democracy Bridge is known for organizing participants who stand on bridges and visible areas along highways in protest.

In Temple, participants plan to gather on the east side of the SW H K Dodgen Loop and South General Bruce Drive intersection, and promoted parking at Cracker Barrel on the east side of the intersection.

South General Bruce Drive is the name for the I-35 frontage road (service road) that runs alongside the main lanes of I-35 through Temple.

Protesters say they are demonstrating to protect the "promise of being indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

6. It will be cold here in western NY on Saturday.

High temp will be 35 F. We'll need to bundle up and keep moving.

8. Be inspired by Minnesota protests this winter were in 20-below weather!

You can do it NY!

10. I agree, but I think the weather will affect turnout.

There is a 7/11 near the protest site, so people can get coffee or hot chocolate.

I have some "Hot Hands" hand warmers. Might buy some more to pass around if the store isn't out of them at this time of year.

I also have plenty of hats, gloves, and scarves, plus a fake fur lined bala clava. Fur lined boots. Thick socks.

We will be in a park and on the surrounding sidewalks. No shelter except a library across the street where people can warm up for a few minutes and come back.

But I am dedicated enough to stick it out. Not everyone is.

17. Im still trying to figure

Out my route for Sat. I still can't put any weight on my knee and im almost out of pain meds. But if I can get this other couple to go this time, I'll have help. Should be able to sit on a curb and hold a sign at least, I hope.

11. I fear if there is a big enough

turnout, even peaceful, The Republicans will still declare it an "Up-Rising" to enact the Insurrection Act......which is what they have been trying to provoke with ICE/BorderPatrol violence against demonstrators for the last year.........

[Hope22]

15. Or...we can hide at home and wait as they declare a need to do the same.

They aren’t reasonable or truthful so expect the worst always!
