Thanks to the work of tireless organizing around the country—actions, boycotts, local resolutions, and so much more—we have WON. Avelo Airlines has announced they will be stopping their work with ICE.
But on the same day, ICE murdered a civilian in Minnesota. A mother who was lawfully observing the agents, a constitutionally protected act of community defense.
And as we watch ICE break national laws and constitutional rights, and witness Trump’s brazen disregard for international law by kidnapping a head of state and threatening others, we are grounded in our reality: WE are the ones who must hold ICE, any corporation complicit in their horrific regime, and our political representatives accountable.
We must continue to protect us, and we must continue to take action together.
Next Thursday, January 15 at 8pm ET, please join our call to talk about what we did, and what we’ll do next to take on Avelo and build immigration defense strategies, groups, and power in our communities.
