Abolish ICE is the absolute minimum acceptable policy.

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

Californians are buying ice scrapers at Home Depot, then immediately returning them....bogging down the entire store, until Home Depot refuses to allow ICE to loiter at their location to detain innocent people.
Winter is coming. Scrape ICE.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

New York City helped my mother become the artist she is today. The next generation deserves a City Hall that lifts up tomorrow's artists as well.

I'm a lifelong Buffalo Bills fan who has never been to a Highmark Stadium game (my family was poor and then we moved out of Buffalo when I was a teenager). I'm running out of time to catch a game in the stadium that defined football for me growing up so I think it's time: Dec 7.

Home Depot could implement a policy requiring ICE to present a judicial warrant before operating on its property. Businesses are fully within their rights to decide who is allowed on their premises.
