ICE Targets Immigration Activists


Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents are being accused of targeting immigration rights activists for arrest and deportation.

One of these activists is Ravi Ragbir, Executive Director of New Sanctuary Coalition in New York. Other immigrants rights leaders have been detained, and regular check-ins with ICE have become terrifying events for many people.


Action:

1. Contact your Senators and ask them to free Ravi Ragbir, Jean Montrevil, and Eliseo Jurado.

2. Try contacting DHS to demand the release of these same individuals. Their mailbox will probably be full because of the shutdown, but give it a try:
(202) 282-8495
