No community should be forced to bear the weight of a system that profits from human suffering.

Private, for-profit prisons have no place in a fair and free democracy—and especially profiting off the suffering of an inhumane and undemocratic detention system.

Period.

The US government is summarily executing people on a weekly basis without telling the American people any of their names or presenting any proof of their guilt, for alleged crimes that do not carry the death penalty in the US.

As New Orleans braces for the arrival of ICE, there is a particular stain that comes with hunting Mexicans and Central Americans in that city. These are the same folks who arrived en masse to help rebuild the city after Katrina and have since become a vibrant part of its renewal.

Fuck ICE to hell.

This is my kind of good trouble.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

I marked a student absent. He was kidnapped on his way to school. His main priority was to complete the reading assignment for his English class. Not running and hiding from ICE GOONS.

I stand with unionized Starbucks workers, who are on strike across the country right now for better wages and working conditions.

Until Starbucks strikes a fair bargain with its workers and ceases its union-busting behavior, I'll continue to boycott the company.

State troopers are paid and controlled by the Governor and legislature.

It’s time for Pritzker to yank the funding of State Troopers in IL to do any activity in support of ICE.

Why the hell is any state entity working with ICE?

@govpritzker.illinois.gov this doesn’t look like you’re protecting Illinois. Looks like you’re helping Nazis.

Gov Pritzker , any update from your office on the illegal abduction of journalist Debbie Brockman with WGNTV by federal agents?

One first step people should do to respond to this is start using the “report a speed trap” function in Apple Maps to report where ICE is operating. Make Apple party to the attempt to protect people.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

…#abolish ICE
Masked goons are tearing families apart, pulling parents away from their children. The family is attempting to navigate the legal system, but this situation is truly horrifying. I'm genuinely afraid for the future of this country.

Watch this if you can. Each of us must commit to speak out and show up! Resistance works! 🍃
Video below: “I am American. I am American.” A man pleads, “Ayúdame, ayúdame. Help me!”

Meanwhile, an ICE officer pulls a gun on innocent bystanders — in Hyattsville, MD. This is happening in America. Right now.

What are we doing about this? It MUST stop. @SenateDems @HouseDemocrats
