They’re not just thugs; they’re incompetent lying thugs.
Even more evidence this plan is half-baked, dangerous, and unconstitutional.
We’re not giving up this fight — now is the time to get even louder and get ICE out of Chester for good.

ICE retracts false claim that it purchased Hudson Valley warehouse
The federal agency said its statement that it bought a former Pep Boys building in Chester to use as a detention center was a “mistake.”

It's almost impossible to overstate the impact of Reverend Jesse Jackson's leadership, vision, and tireless organizing in shaping American politics, our movements, and the fight for racial and economic justice and a real democracy. We've lost a giant. Rest in power.
Today, we mourn a giant in the civil rights movement who left an indelible mark on our politics and our world. All of us in the fight to build a democracy that works for everyone stand on the shoulders of Reverend Jesse Jackson.

DHS is shutting down. Why? Because Democrats took an oath of office to uphold the Constitution and ICE is lawless and out of control. We cannot fund an agency that is murdering our citizens, tear gassing school zones, and disappearing legal immigrants.

This victory belongs to the people of Minnesota who have inspired all of us by transforming crisis into action and tragedy into solidarity. People power works.
The timing of this announcement — shortly before Congress votes on a DHS funding bill — is no accident.
