💔 Kilmar Abrego Garcia was wrongfully deported, tortured, and imprisoned. Now ICE wants to deport him again, only this time to a country where he’s never lived. This is not immigration enforcement. It’s cruel. It’s retaliation. Sign the #JusticeForKilmar petition: wearecasa.org/justice4kilmar

🧵 Maryland is leading the country when it comes to our youth for all the wrong reasons. Our state has the highest number of violations of federal standards for youth kept in adult jails. 7x HIGHER than the allowable number of violations.

Only a few days left of the 2025 Maryland legislative session! The Senate must pass HB767 – to require tenants are given at least 7 days notice of their eviction. Tenants facing eviction should AT LEAST know when it's happening.

The Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee could be voting on the Tenant Possessions Recovery Act as soon as this afternoon! Sign up for a slot and tell them to pass the bill with NO weakening amendments! No one should lose their home AND all of their belongings on the same day.

The Maryland General Assembly is closer than ever to finally passing local enabling legislation for Good Cause Eviction (HB709/SB651), but they're considering bad amendments that would undermine other renter protections. Call the Senate JPR cmte NOW to urge a STRONG bill! slottr.com/ProtectRenters

Nobody should be evicted without a good reason, but in Maryland large corporate landlords file more than 5,000 eviction cases each year without providing a reason. We can change that – tell our legislators to pass a STRONG Good Cause Eviction bill! #MDGA25
