A rally calling for an impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump will take place Saturday morning at Terry Schrunk Plaza in downtown Portland.

The #ImpeachTrump rally will feature Oregon Democratic Rep. Earl Blumenauer, according to the event’s Facebook page. It’s set to begin at 10:30 a.m., with speakers starting at 11 a.m.

“An impeachment inquiry is the best way for Congress to continue to investigate Trump's crimes, misconduct and abuse of power,” the event details read.

Blumenauer is one of two Oregon representatives who have stood in support of an impeachment inquiry against Trump, according to the New York Times.

In all, more than 60 House Democrats and one House Republican support an impeachment inquiry, according to the Times.

Kayse Jama, director of Unite Oregon, a non-profit and “intercultural movement for justice,” is scheduled to speak at the event as well.

#ImpeachTrump rallies are taking place across the United States tomorrow in more than 100 cities, according to the rally’s website. In Oregon alone, rallies are planned in Portland, Bend, Astoria, Eugene and several other cities, as well as in Vancouver, Washington.

Portland’s rally is being organized by Indivisible Oregon, Nasty Women Get (expletive) Done PDX, and Stand On Every Corner PDX.

Supporters of President Trump plan a “peaceful” counter-protest. The right-wing group Patriot Prayer posted a link to the event on its Facebook page Thursday calling on supporters to show up at the pro-impeachment rallies.

"Get out your flags and your MAGA hats and show them some peaceful opposition,” the Patriot Prayer post read.
