This is why we must fight for everyone. Whether they’ve been incarcerated or have had contact with the criminal legal system or are merely undocumented. When you accept that some people are deserving of detention and deportation the scope of who is eligible is always under threat of expanding.

Do not comply.

Just released memorandum from OPM:
Federal facilities will now have a bathroom ban for transgender people.
It will go into effect on the 31st.
It also has a slew of effects and puts into place the 1st anti-trans EO policies for every agency.
This will have a ton of impacts very quickly.

John Fetterman just became a full sponsor of the Laken Riley Act, which would mandate detention for any noncitizen even *arrested* for a theft offense (even if not convicted) and give state AGs sweeping and privileged private enforcement powers in federal court. www.foxnews.com/politics/rep...
Republicans look to finally push through Laken Riley bill with new GOP trifecta
