CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) -

In accordance with Mitt Romney's visit to Cincinnati, several protestors plan to meet on Saturday morning.

The non-profit organization 'Progress Ohio' is scheduled to protest outside the Cincinnati Museum Center, just before Mitt Romney's speech.

Progress Ohio believes millionaires should pay their fair share of taxes, and also want to protect Medicare and Medicaid.

They will meet from 8 to 10:30 a.m. outside the Museum Center.

Cincinnati council members Yvette Simpson and Cecil Thomas are scheduled to hold a news conference, as well. They claim Romney's policies would hurt Cincinnati's middle class.
