Join our Immigrant Justice Summer call next Thursday, August 20 to learn how to get your community trained up and ready to demand accountability and ensure protection before an ICE surge hits (8pm ET/5pm PT). When ICE shows up in our neighborhoods, it’s crucial that we have a grounded system to channel people, training, and resources in the right direction. Without a plan in place, energy scatters and well-intentioned neighbors sometimes create structures parallel to the immigrant-led response already in progress. This call guides you on the training necessary to build a link tree, an online tool that acts as your community’s front door so neighbors can easily find the information they need to show up in an immigrant-aligned, hyper-local, and safe response.
Now that the House and Senate are both on August recess, schedule an in-district office visit or plan an event in your community using our Indivisible recess resources. While the August recess should be a time for our Members of Congress to host town halls and meet with constituents, they too often use that time to avoid scrutiny. If you have Republican MoCs, take some time this month to voice your opposition to the SAVE America Act (Trump’s repulsive voter suppression bill), more funding for ICE and CBP, and Trump’s demand for billions to fuel his illegal war with Iran. If you have Democratic MoCs, continue to raise the alarm about Trump’s authoritarianism and demand they not give an inch to the GOP when Congress returns in full after Labor Day.
