At least 1,000 demonstrators gathered Monday in downtown Los Angeles for a second day of protests against President Donald Trump’s immigration policies, part of a coordinated series of actions dubbed “A Day Without Immigrants.”

Hundreds of people also gathered for a rally and march Monday morning near the federal courthouse in Santa Ana.

In Los Angeles, demonstrators initially assembled on the steps of City Hall, close to the 101 Freeway.

Around 11 a.m., protesters marched along West First and North Spring streets, wended near the Crypto.com Arena, where they gathered, waving flags and chanting. The group then made its way to a 101 Freeway overpass, where police were posted nearby on the ramps to keep the crowd from marching onto the freeway, like what occurred on Sunday.Around 2:15 p.m., protesters marched to City Hall and took over the steps and street right outside. When they left, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, and Trump had been cursed at with spray paint on the sides of City Hall, with one phrase spelling the president’s name “Turmp.”

And then the protesters moved on, along Spring.

The protest appeared to be peaceful, with police allowing the group to move through city streets.

In Santa Ana, about 150 protesters gathered at Fifth and Ross streets to voice opposition to Trump’s immigration policies and the president’s vow to carry out mass deportations.

The protesters held up signs saying, “Mexicans Aren’t Going Anywhere,” and “Don’t Bite the Hands that Feed You,” with motorists honking in support.

Organizers Tonali Un and Carla Valencia said they were social-justice activists who hope to make the demonstrations a regular occurrence. They chose the location for the protest because it was near the federal buildings for courts and immigration services.

“I think people are finally opening their eyes,” Un said.

“A lot of people I talk to now regret” voting for Trump, she said. “People are finally realizing they have to do their research.”

Un said many of the Latino Trump supporters she has spoken to did not believe he would crack down on immigration or follow through on many of his policies.

Since taking office on Jan. 20, Trump has acted on his campaign promise to take steps to increase deportations of undocumented immigrants, with ICE conducting raids in major cities. Immigration was a major focal point of his campaign, with Trump vowing to conduct mass deportations, expelling people in the country illegally — particularly those charged or convicted of crimes.
