The Trump-Vance admin gave ICE free reign to raid houses of worship—in parking lots, at preschool pickup, and even during sermons. The threats to community safety are at an all-time high.
Today we received supporting briefs in our case urging the court to keep ICE out of houses of worship.

I extend my deepest sympathies, prayers, and righteous anger to the loved ones of Renee Good, a 37 year old mother and American citizen killed by ICE. We should never normalize what is happening. We must do all we can to resist tyranny and hate — and to demand accountability.
