Thousands of people took to the streets in Los Angeles on Saturday.

Saturday's protest drew a massive crowd gathering outside Los Angeles City Hall since morning. More than a dozen of politicians, including Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti and Senator Alex Padilla, took to the stage and delivered speeches.
The Women's March Foundation, which organized the event, said it received more than 50,000 signups for the "Bans Off Our Bodies" rally.
