🚨 HAPPENING NOW: Immigrant leaders are outside the ICE offices in Washington DC demanding @DHSgov and @POTUS STOP all deportations NOW. DHS has full discretion to stop any more deportations from happening and prevent harm in our communities!
Under the Biden administration, ICE & CBP have deported over 26,000 people, including thousands of Black immigrants to countries including Cameroon, Haiti & Jamaica. Immigrant youth will not be silent as these agencies continue to advance their racist & xenophobic agenda.
“I refuse to stand by as these injustices continue… As someone who has been detained by ICE & witnessed her brother & father be deported, I know the pain my family lives with every day is felt by millions who continue to suffer in this way,” -UWD leader in DC, Dany Vargas
With lives on the line, there is absolutely no time for inaction! Biden must show his administration is serious about delivering for ALL immigrants & different from Trump & Obama-era policies that allowed ICE & CBP to ruthlessly target & deport our communities.
Racism, xenophobia & cruelty are core to ICE & CBP, two agencies under which Black & brown people have been targeted, detained, deported & even killed. @POTUS must step up NOW to END detention, STOP deportations & prevent any more trauma against our communities.
