The number of rallies, protests and marches planned for Saturday to protest the Trump administration's immigration policies has expanded to more than 700 nationwide, organizers said.

The "Families Belong Together" protests will include at least 16 in New Jersey, according to MoveOn.org, the liberal political action group that is one of dozens organizing the rallies.

The nationwide day of protest was originally designed to protest President Donald Trump's policy of separating parents from their children as they awaited prosecution after crossing into the U.S. illegally. Trump reversed that policy last week, through protest organizers said they plan to go on with the events nationwide in a unified rebuke of the administration's treatment of immigrants.

“Now is a time for action, by making our voices heard not just through voting, but also through protest. It is inhumane how these children have been treated, and the president’s executive order did nothing to address it,” Stephanie Hunnell and Sylvia Breitowich, organizers of a rally in Asbury Park, said in a statement.

Rallies in Cape May and Bordentown were recently added to the list of New Jersey events. Other events have changed their start times.

There will also be a large march in New York City across the Brooklyn Bridge and a rally in Washington, D.C., near the White House.

Here's an updated list of the 16 events planned for Saturday in New Jersey:
