Nearly 50 Florida cities and counties will host “Good Trouble Lives On" events protesting the Trump administration on Thursday including in.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) - More than 20 people gathered at the Florida Capitol to join the nationwide protest ‘Good Trouble Lives On.’ Many are in attendance to protest against President Donald Trump’s mass deportations, cuts to Medicaid and other cuts to safety nets for low-income people.

From the streets of downtown Orlando to the corners of Deland, Altamonte Springs, Mount Dora, and Melbourne, hundreds of protesters gathered for yet another demonstration.

Nearly 50 protests are scheduled across Florida July 17, 2025, in response to 'civil and human attacks' made by Trump administration, organizers say.

Activists who organized the protest advocated that those in attendance consider employing civil disobedience in response to Florida's controversial new immigration detention centers.

"Good Trouble Lives On" protests took place across the country on Thursday, including in Central Florida. Nearly 50 Florida cities were expected to host the national day of action protests in response to "the attacks on our civil and human rights" by Donald Trump's administration.

"Good Trouble Lives On" was the third protest of President Trump's policies that Nan Reiner has attended this year. The Palm Beach County resident says his administration is changing the nation she had come to know over 69 years.

Activists rallied, waved signs and greeted motorists while gathered on the evening of Thursday, July 17, 2025 at the intersection of U.S. 41 and Colonial Boulevard in Fort Myers. Participants were part of the “Good Trouble” national day of action to honor the legacy of civil rights icon John Lewis.
