Santa Fes No Kings Protest Faces Fee Hurdle: Activists Challenge Citys Street March Costs
Indivisible Santa Fes planned protest against federal overreach was met with a hefty fee of up to $25,000 for road closures and public safety. The group shifted the event to the Roundhouse grounds due to these costs. City staff explained the fees cover police protection, traffic control, and other logistics. Activist and law professor Heidi Li Feldman argued these requirements burden free speech and assembly, violating First Amendment protections. This issue mirrors debates in other cities, where protest permit fees have faced legal challenges. The next No Kings march is scheduled for March twenty-eighth on capitol grounds.
