Ban Them, a local group who believes assault weapons and high capacity magazines should be banned in Orlando, will be hosting a rally at City Hall today.

According to their Facebook event page, speakers will include State Senator Darren Soto, City Commissioner Patty Sheehan, Community Leader and Activist Kyle Johnson and Carlos Alberto Navarro, the founder of "Ban Them."

The rally is set for 6:30 p.m.

Ban Them formed the week after the mass shooting at Pulse nightclub on June 12.
