People Protest Near Trump Hotel in Las Vegas Against Immigration Plans
The protest began near the Bellagio Casino, where participants gathered before marching to the Trump Hotel

People in Las Vegas protested on January 29 outside the Trump International Hotel to speak out against President Donald Trump‘s new immigration plans. About 200 people joined the protest showing their anger over what the government wants to do, like deport many people and stop giving citizenship to babies born in the US.
Fears Over Deportations Spark Protest Near Trump Hotel in Las Vegas
The protest started close to the Bellagio Casino. People met there and then walked to the Trump Hotel. They held signs that said things like “Education Over Deportation” and shouted “Viva Mexico” and “Viva La Raza.” Many said they worry about how Trump’s plans will affect immigrants without papers and their families.
Among the protesters was UNLV student Dabrya Edeza. She stressed the importance to raise awareness and spoke out against attempts to make immigrants criminals, as reported by the Las Vegas Review-Journal. She joined high school students Karen Pina and Yareli Nunoz. They said a social media post, which someone later removed informed them about the event.
Some people at the protest felt they had to act after Trump signed orders to tighten border security, speed up deportations, and try to end birthright citizenship. A federal judge put the last one on hold for now, but these policies have caused worry in immigrant communities. Protester Albert Lucero pointed out the fear that families with undocumented members face. He said many of them worry they might be split up.
Las Vegas Protest Against Immigration Policies Stays Peaceful Amid Tensions
The protest stayed peaceful even though some protesters yelled at people leaving the Trump Hotel during tense moments. Cops watched over the area to keep everyone safe.
Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance say these policies are needed to enforce immigration laws. However, critics think they create more division and put certain groups at risk. Some protesters promised to keep fighting what they see as unfair policies saying they will not stay quiet.
The Trump Organization did not answer when asked about the protest. This event was just one of many similar protests happening around the country. People who care about this issue are speaking up against how the administration deals with immigration. In other news, Donald Trump visited Nevada on his first trip since starting his second term.
The visit’s goal was for him to thank his supporters for helping him win the 2024 election. Before Nevada, he stopped in North Carolina to look at hurricane damage and in California to see areas hit by wildfires. Trump’s win in Nevada was a big deal – he was the first Republican to get over 50% of the vote there since 2004. He got a lot of help from regular people and big donors like Dr. Miriam Adelson, who gave $100 million to boost his campaign.
