A group of Democratic lawmakers led by Senate Minority Leader [Chuck Schumer](http://time.com/4653374/donald-trump-chuck-schumer-airport-tears/) and House Minority Leader [Nancy Pelosi](http://time.com/4586318/nancy-pelosi-reelected-democratic-leader/) will rally against President Trump’s [executive order](http://time.com/4653063/donald-trump-muslim-ban-new-york-protests/?xid=homepage) on immigration outside the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday.

The 6 p.m. Eastern rally will call on Trump to rescind the order, which bans immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries. Protests against the ban — which prohibits citizens from Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen from entering the country — have [spread across the U.S.](http://time.com/4653909/barack-obama-immigration-ban-protests/), as travelers have been detained in airports.

“We are witnessing an historic injustice unfold, and we must keep the pressure on,” Pelosi [wrote](http://www.politico.com/story/2017/01/trump-immigration-democrats-rally-234335) in letter to House Democrats.

Watch the rally above.
