***ICE PETITION ALERT, DO NOT SIGN***

We noticed petitioners around and did some sleuthing. There are petitions circulating right now attempting to get measures on the ballot to essentially remove sanctuary policies in Colorado. That means local law enforcement would be required to report individuals with *unknown* immigration status, for any crime, regardless of immigration status, to the Department of Homeland Security. Upon further investigation, these measures were introduced by the President and Vice-President of **Advance Colorado,** a MAGA group trying to undo progressive policies in Colorado that receives millions in anonymous donations. The petitions are distributed via a petition company called **Victor's Canvassing**.

Photos of the proposed measures are below. The wording is brief and does not tell the full story.

WHY WE ARE AGAINST THESE MEASURES:

**Colorado currently follows all federal laws regarding reporting undocumented immigrants. When an undocumented immigrant engages in a violent crime, they are reported to the Department of Homeland Security.

**Sanctuary policies protect all of us! Statistically speaking, counties with sanctuary policies have lower crime rates and protect undocumented persons who can offer tips or serve as witnesses to a crime in court without punishment, which is essential to cooperation with local law enforcement

**ICE USES DECEPTION AND UNLAWFUL PRACTICES TO PREY UPON YOUR IGNORANCE. These are masked, unidentified individuals. Therefore, anyone can claim to be ICE or law enforcement and kidnap individuals. There are already cases where impersonators have been caught. ICE have openly admitted to racial profiling. Those released from ICE custody are left without their phones, their money, or any means of contacting family members. They are dumped on the street with no means of communication.

**The conditions in ICE detention facilities, yes even in Colorado, have been reported as inhumane. Conditions are poor, detainees are provided very little food or supplies, relying on commissary money for survival, if they are able to get any.

HELP US TO HELP YOU. Local law enforcement need to spend their time, money, and efforts on local law enforcement. ICE has been given a budget of trillions of dollars. They can use that money to improve their own enforcement measures. They don't need our help. Our community members do!

Propaganda always needs a scapegoat. The "other." The most vulnerable among us with less resources to defend themselves. This is a tired old playbook. This is nothing new or clever.

Watching the US government churn out literal soviet-style propaganda is wild.
