[Abolish ICE NY-NJ @abolishICE_nynj]

#Reso0066 just passed the @NYCCouncil ! This bill calls on our state to end contracts with ICE making it more likely that immigrants can fight their cases at home & in their communities. This is the first step in ensuring immigrants in NY are treated with #DignityNotDetention

[bpc4blm @bpc4blm]

@GovKathyHochul @yuhline @briankavanaghny, I urge you to follow the facts, not fear. NY lawmakers must focus on evidence-based programs & repairing our frayed social safety net, not fear-mongering, misinformation & outright lies about bail reform. https://t.co/5VX4fDCli1

While detained in Caroline Detention Facility, Paul has been assaulted and abused by officers. After reporting the incidents there was no action taken against them. He is in constant fear of his life. #FreePaulWhite #ProtectBlackQTImmigrants

[bpc4blm @bpc4blm]

Support Paul White’s 13-year-old daughter, Kady, who has been struggling emotionally throughout his time in immigration detention. She recently attempted suicide. Donate here. #FreePaulWhite https://t.co/FTB9mTJ2UV

URGENT ACTION NEEDED! Paul White, a Black bisexual immigrant who has lived in the United States for his entire adult life, is at imminent threat of deportation. Sign the petition to #FreePaulWhite & share widely. https://t.co/RBH6mQJqaH

[Katal Center for Equity, Health, & Justice @katalcenter]

The crisis at Rikers keeps getting worse- unreported violence, lack of access to healthcare, & overcrowding. Even more, there are people still incarcerated for technical parole violations because DOCCS is "disregarded parts of" #LessIsMoreNY.

We’re calling on @govkathyhochul to implement the 30 for 30 credits system by MAY. September is too long to wait for #LessIsMoreNY to be fully implemented! People who follow the rules of parole should be rewarded with early discharge.

I'm attending a @justine4ny event: NYC Neighbors in Support of Ukraine Info Session. RSVP here: https://t.co/EzDHPj5KJu

[National Immigration Law Center @NILC]

.@POTUS promised to restore humanity to our immigration system—but we're seeing the opposite. His administration is embracing inhumane policies—like Title 42 & MPP—that inflict cruelty on Black, Brown & Indigenous migrants.

We urge @POTUS to reverse course.

[We Are CASA @CASAforall]

Cristina became a single mom when her husband was deported. That meant their four children were left without a father. She works so many hours to make ends meet and prays for her husband’s return to the family.

The reality of immigrant detention, @JoeBiden #CommunitiesNotCages

[Detention Watch Network (DWN) @DetentionWatch]

While the world watches in horror as people in Ukraine bear the consequences of yet another deadly war, we are reminded that all people, regardless of where they were born & color of their skin, should be welcomed with compassion to seek safety and refuge. #CommunitiesNotCages

[Black LGBTQIA+ Migrant Project (BLMP) @OfficialBLMP]

ICE's immigration detention system does not need to exist and communities across the country and people currently detained are organizing to end it and build a better future. #CommunitiesNotCages

[The Bronx Defenders @BronxDefenders]

Lives are in jeopardy under ICE and CBP custody. Every detention and deportation represents a family separation that causes trauma to children, families, and communities. #CommunitiesNotCages

[Orange County Rapid Response Network @oc_rrn]

Last night's #participatorydefense meeting was truly powerful. One of our community members who was recently released from Adelanto joined us to celebrate his freedom & another member was able to advocate for himself to get his charges dismissed. #WeGotUs #MutualAid

[bpc4blm @bpc4blm]

Family separations STILL happen every day when DHS locks people up in ICE detention or deports them back to the very place they were fleeing. @Potus #FreeThemAll from ICE & CBP custody & ensure protections for ALL immigrant communities. #CommunitiesNotCages

[bpc4blm @bpc4blm]

On @POTUS's watch, over 2 million people have been deported or expelled, including tens of thousands of Black asylum seekers who have been denied the opportunity to seek safety. Shameful! #CommunitiesNotCages

[bpc4blm @bpc4blm]

Black migrants are deported 2x as often & face inhumane, violent treatment at our border. @POTUS #ProtectDontDeport! #CommunitiesNotCages
