TL;DR: Abolish ICE. DC Statehood now. Mutual aid forever. A letter to our community:
For too many months, we’ve witnessed this fascist regime use ICE to terrorize communities across the country. What’s happening in Minneapolis is larger and more escalated than what we continue to experience in DC, but the goals are the same: to intimidate communities, scare immigrants, and rip families apart. This regime wants us to turn away from each other and isolate, but what we’ve seen instead is a mass mutual aid movement. On the streets from DC to Minneapolis, community members are bearing witness, taking care of each other, and putting their bodies between federal agents and their neighbors. That is mutual aid in action and the thing that will get us through this horrifying moment. Over 30 years ago, DCAF was built on the principles of mutual aid and it is still embedded in everything we do: We ask our community to invest in each other, fund abortion, and make it possible for anyone to make a decision for their bodies and their future. It’s a beautiful model that exists outside of and in response to the systems that continue to harm us. Watching videos of community members being brutalized and murdered by ICE can make us all feel hopeless. To take back that hope, look to the people of Minneapolis: After the murder of Alex Pretti, people remained in the streets—in the snow and freezing temperatures—and took care of each other. In DC and other cities across the country, people left their homes with hours notice to show solidarity with the people of Minneapolis. We said it once, we’ll say it a thousand times: We want ICE abolished and out of our communities. We want National Guard members off our streets. We want elected officials to put down the talking points and join the people in the streets who are putting their lives on the line every day for each other. Generations before us risked their lives to fight for freedom and protect their communities from state violence. It’s our turn to be brave and defiantly believe a better world is possible. DCAF is here for whenever you need us. We promise to keep finding ways to bring joy and community in the darkest moments.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

We're horrified & outraged: Immigration agents have once again committed cold-blooded murder of a public observer who posed no threat to them.

This time, they've executed a fellow nurse, Alex Pretti. We demand justice and accountability. Abolish ICE, now! https://bit.ly/4big77u

WE HIT OUR MATCH GOAL! You raised $30k for abortion access. With our match, you *doubled* your impact—getting us to $60k this month alone.

…Which begs the question: Can we get to $100k?

DC is our city. The deployment of federal law enforcement throughout the District is why we needed DC Statehood yesterday. 
 
The goal of the police state we have been living through for weeks is fear. They want us to stay inside, disconnect, and give up.
