Decisions to stand up are made
in dust,
in danger,
in defiance.

And we chose to stand again—alongside Rep. McIver—as her legal team moved to dismiss these unjust charges.

These brazen acts of selective prosecution must end.

Moments ago, Bondi told the Senate Judiciary Committee the National Guard is being sent to Chicago, as we speak.

Federalizing troops against U.S. cities is not “law and order.” It’s the erosion of democratic order.

Trump v. CASA is out, and it’s bad.

SCOTUS ruled that lower courts can’t issue nationwide injunctions. That means U.S.-born children of undocumented parents not named in the lawsuit are left unprotected.

No injunction.
No recognition.
No citizenship.

Today @njaij.bsky.social and the People’s Organization for Progress (www.popnj.org) anchored a NO KINGS March in Newark, New Jersey.

Hundreds showed out in protest on this national day of defiance. No thrones! No Kings!

Charges against @rasjbaraka.bsky.social were dropped because there was no case, just a stunt to undermine oversight. Now they’re targeting @replamonica.bsky.social while Habba courts Trump for a permanent appointment.

This isn’t justice—it’s a power grab. #DefendOversight #IStandWithMcIver

The incarceration of Mahmoud Khalil is the result of a violent immigration system fueled by white supremacy, profit, and fear—one that funds ICE and CBP while defunding our communities.

But we’re not here just to name the problem.

We’re here to say: enough.

Spread Power, Not Panic!

Use S.A.L.U.T.E. to gather the necessary information and verify whether an ICE raid is actually occurring.

Join @njaij.bsky.social on January 23rd to explore how you can take action on critical state advocacy campaigns and prepare to respond to Trump’s agenda in his first 100 days.

As Trump’s presidency approaches, I’m reflecting on the challenges ahead and drawing strength from my family’s resilience as immigrants in America.

By the end of it, I’ll stand unshaken: “My head is bloody, but unbowed.”

Reflecting on my visit to the southern border—seeing missing persons flyers and hearing of months-long waits for inspections—is unsettling.

As it gets harder to exercise what I see as a fundamental right to migrate, we must remember: we’re here because the U.S. was there. Migration is reparations.

Standing strong in DC with fellow advocates! After attending the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, we met with our NJ delegates to demand their support in opposing the mass deportation agenda.

¡La lucha sigue—con fuerza!

Mass deportations would be disastrous! I’m here at the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to stand against this extremist agenda and show our support for immigrant communities.
