Saturday's event at the Capitol remained peaceful as crowds gathered to listen to speakers and rally. The Texas Department of Public Safety made one arrest earlier in the day related to threats made against state lawmakers that were expected to speak.

The “No Kings” day of action happened the same day as, and in opposition to, a Washington, D.C. military parade on President Donald Trump’s birthday. Planning for the parade began two years ago and was intended to commemorate the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary.
