Springfield, Cottage Grove fill streets for ‘No Kings’ march

SPRINGFIELD – Roads in Springfield were closed last Saturday as thousands of protestors flooded the streets near City Hall during the third round of “No Kings” protests, a nationwide event focusing on expressing displeasure with the federal administration.
An estimated 8 million people showed up nationwide to protest, compared with the October rally’s 7 million.
An estimated 3,500 people joined Springfield’s demonstration, filling 5th Street from sidewalk to sidewalk, from B to Main Street. The empty lot behind the PublicHouse was full, too, with booths set up with resources for folks, including a first-aid station.
