A small rally was held Saturday outside the Lloyd D. George Federal Building in support of the Bundy family.

This comes as Ammon Bundy and other members of the family have led an armed group occupying a national wildlife refuge in Oregon for much of the past month.

The supports called Saturday's event a "Constitution Support Rally" and they want to stand behind the Bundys and other "victims of federal oppression." The event was organized by the Las Vegas Tea Party.

Earlier this week, a separate rally was held by people against the occupation and Bundys, calling for the arrest of the family members, including Cliven Bundy.
