🚨NOW: #JewsAgainstICE in Los Angeles are shutting down the offices of the GEO Group, a private prison company that runs detention centers for ICE. 🚨
No more anonymity for anyone helping run the detention and deportation machine.

No rest for anyone profiting off of concentration camps.
Just 2 hours from this office building, GEO helps ICE run California’s largest concentration camp for immigrants.

Every day GEO employees go to work, they help Trump’s xenophobic & white supremacist agenda.

That’s why these #JewsAgainstICE are here saying #NeverAgainIsNow
👀👀👀Watch & share the livestream here: facebook.com/NeverAgainActi…
We need you to join us in LA & we need you to join us everywhere.

This is a massive moment and a mass movement.

Go to neveragainaction.com to join us.
The white supremacist agenda doesn’t just get carried out at the border.

It happens through concentration camps throughout the country.

It happens through mass murder inspired by Trump & co.

& it is made possible in buildings like this 1 in our cities.

Make. it. visible.
People are here today because they know this moment matters, they know which side they’re on
#JewsAgainstICE are still inside the building, too, preventing access to the offices where GEO employees help ICE run concentration camps:
Now entering hour 3️⃣ of shutting down the offices where GEO Group helps ICE run concentration camps.

Still blocking access inside, still blocking all of the doors:
Share this thread and come join us out front of the GEO Group building in LA at 6100 Center Drive
We’re here today because everyone should know that companies like GEO Group make their profit from ICE concentration camps, and they do it from buildings in our own backyards.

We don’t have to let them.
In every city and every state, we should make sure everyone knows who’s helping Trump and ICE detain, deport, and demonize migrants.
📽️NEW: Here's a livestream of our action from inside the lobby📽️ facebook.com/Lauren.Steiner…
It’s now been four hours since Jews and allies started the shut down.

Police are inside and giving their last warning to the protestors inside.
Police have arrested and removed one of the people occupying the inside of the building:
Two more Jews taking action against ICE, Trump, and their allies have just been arrested
Police are now arresting more of the brave people who have helped shut down this building for going on FIVE HOURS
The last group of people inside, who had held the lobby for hours, are being arrested and led out
Those who have been standing outside blocking the back entrance are now also being taken away
Today 18 Jews & allies were arrested while shutting down a building whose employees help ICE run concentration camps.

They closed the building for over 5 hours.

Many took action for the first time.

BREAKING: We're back at the house of DHS Secretary Mayorkas, and we brought receipts.

In these 115 boxes are Trump's 115 ICE contracts, which the Biden administration promised to cancel. Instead Mayorkas has kept them in place, turning local police into extensions of ICE.
NOW: Instead of coming out of his house to dialogue with us, Secretary Mayorkas has sent the Secret Service outside to destroy our message to him.

We brought 115 of Trump's ICE contracts, which Biden promised his DHS would cancel. Instead, they continue to terrorize immigrants.
BREAKING: The Secret Service just tackled Kendra and Hallie to the ground.

Their crime: stacking Trump's ICE contracts outside the home of DHS Secretary Mayorkas, calling on him to cancel them like he promised.

This is how the Biden administration responds to accountability.

“If you think he’s illegal, we can make him disappear.”

Yesterday the Washington Post released a bombshell report on Trump's ICE contracts. What they uncovered is horrifying, and absolutely worth reading in full.

Here are three crucial takeaways:

washingtonpost.com/investigations…
1. The police departments who've partnered with ICE through these contracts are the worst of the worst.

Joe Arpaio loves the 287(g) program. Sheriff Terry Johnson does too, because he thinks Mexican's "values are a lot different — their morals — than what we have here.”
2. These contracts don’t just lead to immigrants being torn from their family. They also create a climate of fear, terrorizing entire communities.

Every trip outside the house becomes a nightmare: “The moment I put the keys in the engine, I’m risking not seeing my mama anymore.”

You're going to want to read this @washingtonpost investigation on Trump's ICE contracts.

And then you're going to want to join our campaign to make sure @SecMayorkas immediately cancels them all.

This needs to blow up:

We can't accept another day of Trump's immigration policies.

The images from the border, the terror that immigrants still feel in our communities - it has to stop.

That's why we're at DHS headquarters, shutting down every gate, telling Biden's admin to #KeepYourPromises
Biden promised to dismantle Trump's cruel immigration system, and replace it with one that's "fair and humane."

Instead, his admin is doubling down on one of Trump’s main tactics: using fear and suffering to try to keep immigrants out.

It’s exactly what we all voted against.
We’re at DHS to ask Secretary Mayorkas a simple question: are you going to #KeepYourPromises and cancel Trump’s border policy & Trump’s ICE contracts? Or will you embrace the racist anti-immigrant agenda you were elected to fix?

Can you ask him too? bit.ly/Keep-Your-Prom…
