Across the nation, huge crowds gathered in "Hands Off" rallies, protesting the White House administration.
In downtown Oklahoma City, chants echoed as hundreds of protestors gathered outside City Hall to make their voices heard.
"Communities across the nation coming together to say, 'Hands off of our democracy, hands off of our healthcare, hands off of our rights,'" said protestor Diana.
Protestors are upset with the actions of the Trump administration and Elon Musk, head of the newly created Department of Government Efficiency.
"It's not just one state or one city, it's the whole nation that is upset," said protestor Brianna.
In the shadow of the Devon Tower outside Oklahoma City's City Hall, hand-made signs depict those frustrations.
"It could be an array of issues, anywhere from social security to veterans to childcare to education," said Brianna.
Demonstrators voiced anger over Trump's immigration policies, deportations, and funding cuts for federal programs and voiced support for the Department of Education, Veterans Affairs, LGBTQ rights and Women's rights.
"These are the voices that are not being heard," said Diana.
Those in attendance hope mass demonstrations across the country will catch the attention of the White House.
"I think we can't go back, if we want to make America great, we have to move forward," said Diana.
