I.C.E. Apparently ICE are as cold-hearted as their name; they have just deported a man who has been in this country for 20 years, is married to an American woman, has four children, and is a respected and successful Indiana business owner. Whatever happened to “We’re only going after the criminals”? The man’s name is Roberto Beristain, and today we’re going to stand beside him and take action on his behalf. You can read the details of the case in this New York Times article. Action: 1. Call or write to the ICE Community Relations Officer for the area which includes Indiana and protest this cruel deportation. ALSO: if you call and speak to someone, ask if ICE has deportation quotas it’s trying to fulfil. Manda Walters Chicago - Community Relations Officer 101 W. Congress Parkway Chicago, IL 60605 (312) 347-2454 2. Register your complaint to the Department of Homeland Security. This page has a link to send an email. 3. If your MoC is one of those who claims that ICE are “only going after criminals,” write or call to draw his/her attention to this case and say you are shocked and disappointed and ask what is he/she going to do to prevent such a terrible thing happening in your district.
