Screenshot of the Midwest Immigration Bond Fund Coalition "About" page: Midwest Immigration Bond Fund About the MIBF Background: The Midwest Immigration Bond Fund started as a coalition effort that grew out of conversations in the Chicago area among organizers and attorneys in 2017-2019 to start a revolving fund like many of those that have started around the United States in recent years. The inaugural Midwest Immigration Bond Fund Coalition came together in May 2020 made up of: Michael Aguhar (IL), Hannah Cartwright (IN), Michelle Garcia (IL), Jasiel Lopez (IL), Karla Lopez-Owens (IN), Aissa Olivarez (WI), Guadalupe Perez (IL), Arianna Salgado (IL), Fred Tsao (IL), Claudia Valenzuela (IL), and Sara Zaleta (IL). Watch the video where Hannah, shares more about how the coalition launched the seed fund amidst the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in October 2020 and the first few bonds we paid in winter 2021. The MIBF incorporated as a non-profit-organization in Chicago, Illinois in July 2021 and has an all-volunteer board of directors from across Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. The MIBF also has a network of Ambassadors who help to share stories about immigration detention and engage in fundraising to support the revolving fund. The Fund currently fundraises with the National Bail Fund Network (“NBFN”), a 501c3 organization, which is a network of dozens of bond funds across the country. The Coalition is hugely thankful for the NBFN’s mentorship over the past many months!

Protesters need signs that inform agents that they are the fall guy in this plotline. Start sowing the seeds of doubt.
