Last post for today: I'm supporting my local Asemblea Popular (People's Assembly) fundraising for reunification of 2 families after violent ICE separation. Please contribute if you can as a way to honor the #NationalShutDown to get #ICEOUT - It would be amazing to meet the goal by the end of today!
