The third annual Women’s March is set to take place this January in Washington, D.C., returning to the site of the first demonstration in 2017.

March organizers told The New York Times that the main demonstration will be on Jan. 19, 2019, in Washington.

Linda Sarsour, an activist and one of the Women’s March founders, told the Times that the confirmation proceedings of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh prompted women to send emails inquiring about the next march.
