DHS & ICE have the authority to release folks from detention centers & save thousands of lives yet, the # of confirmed cases in ICE detention continues to grow everyday.
That's why we're converging at ICE Detention Centers across Texas w/@NeverAgainTexas today #FreeThemAll
This morning we targeted the Coastal Bend Detention Center in Robstown, Texas (about 30 minutes from Corpus Christi).
Rain or shine we won't stop until we #FreeThemAll
And if you can't come out take action here: raicestexas.org/covid19/
Cars are starting to line up in San Antonio now at MacArthur Park to start the drive to the protest site! #FreeThemAll #LetOurPeopleGo
Unbelievable to see all the support in San Antonio. People from all over the place coming together to say: Ya basta! #LetOurPeopleGo
We can empty the detention centers and save lives, right now.
Folks from the Fort Worth and Dallas areas are also getting ready to drive to Prairieland Detention Center.
Time is of the essence. We have to act NOW before the virus starts taking lives in detention centers. #FreeThemAll
Keeping people detained in close quarters & refusing them the ability to go home is not only inhumane, it is a public health hazard.
Austin is demanding Gov @GregAbbott_TX use his power & influence to release people in ICE detention before it's too late! #FreeThemAll
Want to give a huge shoutout to the folks in Corpus Christi who braved the rain to say #NeverAgainIsNow #FreeThemAll ✊🏾💚
Williamson County public health officials and the Mayor of Taylor have told us ICE has COVID-19 under control. But with the confirmed cases in ICE detention centers rising rapidly, the time to act is now. #HuttoIsAPublicHealthHazard
