Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Wednesday, hundreds of immigrants, allies and workers marched from the Southside of Milwaukee (S. 5th and W. Washington Streets) to Milwaukee Turners parking lot (1034 Vel R. Phillips Ave.) across the street from FISERV FORUM, where the Trump MAGA (Make Amerikkka Great Again) Cult (RNC 2024) National Convention will be held on July 15-18, 2024.

Christine Neumann-Ortiz, the founder and Executive Director of Voces de la Frontera (VDLF) at an outdoor rally held at the Milwaukee Turners parking lot stated that former U.S. President Donald J. Trump (R) who is in Wisconsin on Wednesday, was "not welcome in Wisconsin", and that Trump "was the real threat to democracy, orchestrating a failed coup by your corrupt followers and white supremacists. We reject your racist platform that promises dictatorship, military style mass deportations, and family separation."
In 2020, the Wisconsin Latino vote was instrumental in defeating Trump and electing Joe Biden (D) as U.S. President, according to Neumann-Ortiz.
Trump was scheduled to hold a political rally at the Waukesha County Expo Center, according to the Trump campaign.
This year, VDLF and its allies called for President Biden through an executive order to provide work permits for the undocumented taxpaying workers in the nation, to also end 287G law enforcement and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement partnership, for the Wisconsin State legislature to allow undocumented workers to apply for State driver licenses and to end the war in the GAZA.
Multiple speakers at the May Day 2024 rally confirmed that they are planning to stage major protests during the 3-day Trump MAGA Cult (RNC 2024) National Convention at the FISERV FORUM in July 2024.

Update in Wisconsin: Trump told his MAGA cult followers at a Waukesha County rally on May 1, 2024, if elected, he will deploy massive deportations that the U.S. has never seen before, but former President Obama deported millions more, than Trump ever did when he was in office. Trump did very poorly in immigration enforcement. https://youtu.be/lwh5uftox6U
