I cannot emphasize how serious an assault on democracy this is. Any effort by the Trump administration to engage in false claims of fraud or mass voter suppression relies on this as a building block. As importantly, there is no legitimate reason DOJ would want this information.

OPPOSED to DATA CENTERS?
The Working Families Party has put out a recruitment call for candidates opposed to data centers.

As public awareness and movement against data centers and AI grows, more and more communities are voting them down.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.

When the streets start telling the truth, it’s because the institutions won’t.

What’s become painfully obvious is that ICE agents aren’t trained to make us safer. They’re just recruits who thirst for power, violence, and cruelty.

ACTION ALERT:
===================
LD 1971 Rallies SAT DEC 13
===================
Encourage Gov Mills to ENACT LD 1971 into law.
An Act to Protect Workers in This State by Clarifying the Relationship of State and Local Law Enforcement Agencies with Federal Immigration Authorities.

#MEpolitics #Maine
Action Alert: Ask Governor Mills to Protect Maine’s Immigrant Communities and Let LD 1971 Become Law! Since March 2025, Maine’s state and local law enforcement have handed over at least 50 Maine residents and workers to immigration officers at minor traffic stops based on their suspected immigration status alone. These civil immigration handovers to Border Patrol and ICE — which are voluntary actions by Maine law enforcement and fall outside their role — are risking the rights and safety of everyday Maine residents. These handovers also have a larger, destructive chilling effect, destabilizing families, making parents afraid to send their kids to school, harming Maine’s workforce and businesses, shattering public trust, and altogether diminishing our state’s future. Last spring, the Maine legislature passed LD 1971, a bill to address these handovers and ensure that Maine’s public safety resources aren’t being diverted to assist the federal administration in its mass deportation agenda. That bill is currently sitting on Governor Mills’ desk. When the next half of the Maine legislative session starts in January — or if there is a special legislative session called — Governor Mills has 3 days to either veto this bill or let it become law. NOW is the time to make your voice heard and ask Governor Mills to protect ALL Mainers by signing LD 1971 into law! Please write to Governor Mills in your own words about why it is important to you that Maine’s public safety resources not be spent on mass deportation. If you've already submitted your message, thank you! You can send Governor Mills another message if there is anything new you’d like to say about why this bill matters to you. Take action for Maine’s immigrant communities, workforce, public safety, and future PINE TREE ACTIVISM CALENDAR LD 1971 Events for Sat DEC 13, 2025 Details confirmed as of Sat 12/13/25, 8:45AM Share/Repost so Mainers know where to #OPPOSE!
