Tens of thousands protest Trump’s immigration ban across the US

Tens of thousands of people rallied in US cities and at airports on Sunday to voice outrage over President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting entry into the country for travelers from seven Muslim-majority nations.

The protests on Sunday were expected to spread westward as the day progressed.
