Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Thursday, January 30, 2025. We're starting off with some breaking news from downtown Lexington, where a protest for immigration rights took place just a couple of days ago. On January 29, people marched through the streets, raising awareness about deportation raids happening across the country. The march began in front of the Fayette County District Court and covered approximately 2 miles, with protesters chanting and holding signs in support of immigrant rights[1].
