The Women’s March will host a massive civil disobedience in the District of Columbia area on Thursday to resist President Donald Trump’s zero tolerance immigration policies.

Over 1,000 women are expected to put their lives on the line to “end family detention” and “call on Congress to abolish ICE” at 10 a.m., according to the End Family Detention website. Participants will receive direct action training and legal support prior to protesting.

Attendees are required to sign a form where they must agree that in order to act in civil disobedience, they “must risk arrest.” (RELATED: The Annual Women’s March Is A Silly, Emotional Protest About Things That Have Never Happened) 

The Women’s March is currently fundraising money for pizza for the arrestees. Women from outside of D.C. have the option to stay in a local church.
