Thank you @neatoday.bsky.social for voting to cut ties with the ADL. The ADL pretends it's a civil rights group, but really, it's a pro-Israel lobbying group that smears Palestinian rights, and it should never be trusted as an educational resource. I urge all educators to #DropTheADL.

“Huerta is the something more of these immigration raids — not because he’s a union boss, but because he’s a union organizer with ties to both people in power and people in fear.

The coming months will show what happens when those two groups decide, together, that backing down is not an option.”
Commentary: ICE arrested a California union leader. Does Trump understand what that means?
Unions in California are different from many in the U.S. because they are predominately people of color and immigrants. The arrest of a union president in L.A. will likely activate these unions to bec...

The U.S. Constitution and longstanding federal law strictly limit the use of the military to police civilians. Under the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, active-duty military forces are prohibited from engaging in domestic law enforcement unless explicitly authorized by Congress or the Constitution.

"If you got arrested then you weren't protesting peacefully" is a lie. Stop spreading it.

DHS has expanded its use of the 'expedited removal' process. Undocumented community members are now at greater risk of being put in a rapid deportation process - without the right to appear in front of an immigration judge.

In light of the DC raids we want to reshare our ICE watch 101 graphics. Reminder to verify, document, and then report to our hotline.

At its core, #MayDay is about solidarity.

Workers around the globe are taking action this International Workers’ Day to stand up to the billionaires who are threatening our rights and freedoms, and America’s unions are standing with them in solidarity.

@paoramos.bsky.social stays drilling down to the thing that most needs to be said. 👏🏽
“The only thing that they care about is continuing to cement this narrative that if you are a migrant, you don’t belong in this country.” @paoramos.bsky.social explains why the Trump administration “doesn’t care” about accidentally deporting an innocent man to El Salvador.

This is important! It’s time for Arlington to divest.
How do Arlington taxpayers' dollars fund the occupation of 🇵🇸, and what kinds of steps in the right direction COULD Arl take?

On 3/25 we went to the county's budget feedback hearing to make clear that we want our money invested into local services, NOT the occupation of 🇵🇸 or the deportation machine.

Urgent: Illegal Activity Underway

Many undocumented immigrants file tax returns with the IRS, providing details about their residences, families, employers, and earnings. The IRS has historically encouraged tax compliance by issuing ITINs to those without Social Security numbers.

Despite a January 19 ceasefire, Netanyahu has continued to bomb northern Gaza, and now has cut off aid into Gaza.

If it were the other way around it would be headline news, but Netanyahu has killed 700 more Palestinians & global silence.😓

Character is standing against genocide knowing that power may come after you. Cowardice is repressing those under your care because power threatens you.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 
3) Donors make a huge profit. 
4) Repeat.

For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
