1/ 3 YEARS AGO TODAY, IDP joined legal service providers, advocates, allies, & immigrant NY'ers on the steps of the Brooklyn Borough Hall in response to the escalation in ICE's courthouse arrest practices. We're still fighting that battle today #ICEOutofCourts #ProtectOurCourts

2/ Since 2013, IDP has been tracking ICE raids across NYS. We've seen firsthand, the explosion in ICE's courthouse arrest practices under the Trump administration. #ICEOutofCourts #ProtectOurCourts

3/ Since 2016, ICE’s courthouse operations have increased by 1700%.

In just two years, ICE increased its courthouse operations across New York State 17x.

4/ In that same time ICE's tactics have escalated, & they continue to terrorize immigrant communities across NYS.

The chilling effect caused by ICE's courthouse arrests—and other egregious tactics—has prevented immigrant NY'ers from accessing court resources. #ProtectOurCourts

5/ TODAY, the #ProtectOurCourts Act sits on @NYGovCuomo's desk, waiting for a signature—Gov Cuomo, sign the bill today and take a stand against ICE's unacceptable courthouse arrests for immigrant NY'ers! #ICEOutofCourts

6/ @NYGovCuomo—signing the #ProtectOurCourts Act today would bring critical protections to NYs immigrant communities, many of which have been hit hard by #COVID19.

Call the Governor's office today and let him know that you want him to sign this bill and get #ICEOutofCourts NOW!
