The Rally For Solidarity With Refugees In Idaho is scheduled from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday at the Statehouse.

On the event's Facebook page, organizers said the rally in support of refugees from Syria and elsewhere is intended "to express that terrorists do not speak for millions of people and that our community will not allow fanatics to scare us into rejecting our brothers and sisters seeking safety and a better life."
