There’s a big Labor Against I.C.E. event in Portland coming up on Saturday January 31st, and we are glad to amplify this important message.
Labor is at the forefront of our movement, and we are grateful for the leadership of these union leaders in this action.

I've been sent video from the end of the ICE raid at the Zipps on 32nd and Shea.
It shows protesters -- on the sidewalk, impeding no one -- getting drive-by maced by an ICE agent from a truck as it rolls away down the road.
Hard to see how such tactics are justifiable.

Six tribes have issued a statement telling the feds to stop detaining their members.
The gov’t “carries a duty to Tribal Nations. This duty includes safeguarding constitutional rights, ensuring due process, and preventing unlawful detention or harm to tribal citizens, regardless of where they live”
