BREAKING: Border Patrol, entered our humanitarian aid camp near Arivaca AZ today without a warrant, detaining one person, in a clear prioritization of an enforcement only strategy

Agents are currently surrounding and surveilling the property.

CALL TUCSON SECTOR BORDER PATROL:
(520) 748-3000 and demand agents stand down and respect humanitarian aid

CALL TUCSON SECTOR BORDER PATROL:
(520) 748-3000 Example script: My name is _____ , I’m calling to demand that Border Patrol stand down from the No More Deaths humanitarian aid station and stop interfering with life-saving aid in a heat wave.

Temperatures in the Arivaca area are currently surging over 100 degrees. Our work becomes even more vital in the midst of this heat wave and Border Patrol’s actions present as a clear obstruction to people receiving life-saving humanitarian aid.

This escalation comes only a day after NMD released documents revealing that the Border Patrol union (a pro-Trump anti-immigrant extremist org) provoked a June 2017 raid of our camp, calling in support from BORTAC, the agency’s special operations unit.

Border Patrol has always been aware of our work at Byrd Camp and we have continued to maintain open lines of communication with them.

The camp is on private property and we have always exercised our rights against warrantless searches.
