We think cancelling the program is the bare minimum for @SecMayorkas and @JoeBiden.

That's why we've been taking action to make sure all eyes are on this betrayal.

The last few days have weighed heavily on our hearts, as we watch the heart-wrenching loss of life in Israel/Palestine.

As a movement of Jews, immigrants, & allies, we have many among us who are experiencing personal grief and fear for the safety of friends and family.

1/
For those in our movement who have Israeli loved ones, this level of violence may be horrifying and unprecedented.

For Palestinians who are part of our movement and in our communities, this kind of grief, loss, and violence is likely devastatingly familiar.

2/
The brutality and displacement that Palestinians have had to endure from Israel’s ongoing occupation takes place on a daily basis, and has spanned generations.

It’s time to do something different and big—

We’re coming together for our first ever Migrant Solidarity Assembly.

We’re going to the frontlines in the struggle for immigrant justice: Texas.

And we want YOU there.

In the last few weeks, we’ve seen the Biden administration revive the illegal Trump-era asylum transit ban and consider reinstating migrant family detention.

Apparently all those promises made three years ago about protecting migrants…didn’t mean much.

bit.ly/assembly-inter…
Millions of people have been illegally denied their right to asylum, ICE continues to prowl workplaces, bus stations, school parking lots..

And 4 MILLION immigrants have been deported or expelled since Biden took office.
(That’s about the same size as the population of Oregon!)

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.”

This needs to blow up:

❌ The CDC concluded there was no public health reason for banning & expelling immigrants
⛔️ Pence pressured the CDC to start Title 42 anyway to stop immigration.
