Tomorrow, July 1st, people across the country are showing our solidarity by heading to our local Home Depot stores and leafleting about our rights and the rights of our immigrant neighbors. It's not too late to sign up for this “Stand Up To ICE, Know Your Rights” Day of Action!
American families are being torn apart.
U.S. citizens are being detained.
Too many have died in ICE custody this year alone.
All the while, billionaires get richer and profit from our suffering. Today, we’re in Louisiana outside for-profit ICE detention centers to say enough!
This administration continues the cruel practice of targeting, abducting, and detaining immigrant workers and their families, terrorizing schools, churches, courthouses and neighborhoods across the country.
That’s why we hit the road on a Justice Journey, retracing the history of slavery, racism, and exploitation that laid the groundwork for today’s detention system.
The same systems that denied freedom to our ancestors are still detaining our families, friends, and co-workers.
Demand an end to the brutal ICE raids terrorizing our communities >>
Trump has gone too far with his deportation tactics.
No one should be detained without due process or ripped from their families without a chance to plead their case in court.
Just as our ancestors fought for the soul of this nation, so are we.
Together, we can end this cruelty and build a future where every worker, every family, and every community can thrive.
