“I’m incredibly proud to be the daughter of an immigrant. My mother grew up in a very small village in Thailand and she never lets me forget it,” Teigen said at the rally.

"We love that the American story is filled with people who come from all over the world to have a better life here. America at its best is big, beautiful and diverse. It's not small, it's not petty, and it's not exclusive, like Mar-a-Lago," she said, referencing the president's Florida resort.

Teigen, a frequent critic of Trump and his policies, was speaking to a crowd of protesters in Los Angeles as hundreds of similar demonstrations took place across the country. The protests, which occurred in all 50 states, took aim at Trump's "zero tolerance" policy that aggressively prosecutes those who cross into the U.S. illegally.

That policy has led to thousands of children being separated from their parents at the U.S.–Mexico border in recent months, sparking public outrage nationwide.

While Trump signed an executive order to end the separation of migrant families last week, many are still demanding answers on how the administration plans on reuniting those who were already separated under his administrations original policy.
