Why now to #EndDHSRetaliation? 1) Because @DHSgov has been deporting, detaining, and surveilling immigrant activists who speak out for years; 2) bc every day immigrants organize despite ICE and DHS's abuses, and 3) bc we can't wait any longer for change. bit.ly/dhsretaliation
Over 80 immigrant & human rights organizations came together to demand @POTUS and @SecMayorkas commit to protecting immigrant activists from retaliatory enforcement, bring back deported immigrant activists, and end abusive surveillance of immigrant organizing. #EndDHSRetaliation

ICE officials wrote in emails that they hoped targeting Maru Mora Villalpando of @LaResistencia for deportation proceedings would “take away some of her ‘clout.’” #EndDHSRetaliation democracynow.org/2020/4/30/head…
Beto Lopez Gutierrez spoke out against inhumane conditions while he was in ICE detention. He was released after his community rallied around him, but ICE deported him even though he had a pending DACA application. #EndDHSRetaliation chicagoreader.com/chicago/fight-…
“This kind of retribution is terrifying. I know—because it happened to me.” Claudio Rojas was deported and separated from his family by @DHSgov in retaliation for Claudio’s courageous anti-detention activism. #EndDHSRetaliation thedailybeast.com/ice-deported-m…

JFL and other groups condemn the new White House memo seeking to bar immigrants from obtaining green cards and even target them for deportation, for any association with “Antifa”. See the full statement here: tinyjfl.cc/JFL_Statement 1/8
Even as violent right-wing nationalists stormed Congress in a failed attempt to keep Trump in office, right-wing politicians and media personalities attempted to blame “Antifa” for the violence at the Capitol. 2/8
Disturbingly, the political motivation behind this memo is made all the more transparent by the fact that it references anti-racist protests as evidence of “Antifa” activity while making no mention of violent far-right protest activity. 3/8

Our data should be private and protected. Here are three recommendations from our latest report on how to ensure data protection for all bit.ly/JFLtech
1. States should stop sharing DMV data directly with ICE. Many states and localities already have laws and policies to limit the sharing of addresses, school info or other sensitive personal data with ICE. They should consider adopting similar laws for DMV data.
2. States should stop selling DMV data to private companies. Our data should not be for sale. It also allows ICE to bypass data protections placed on direct access to DMV data by simply buying it from these companies.
