We are here at the Prince Edward Co meeting in Farmville, Va demanding that the county does NOT sign a contract to keep Farmville Detention Center open and instead shut it down and release everyone inside! Local students are testifying to uplift the demands of people inside!

ICYMI: “What the Prince Edward County’s Board of Supervisors have done is not only incredibly disappointing, but highly deceptive."

.@Amazon @AWS hosts ICE’s tech weapons fueling incarceration and deportations + Ring’s Neighbors app, which has also been used to make racist comments and reports, helping to criminalize & displace Black, Latinx & low income families across the DMV. #ICEoutofArlington

[LaColectiVA703 @LaColectiVA703]

.@Matt4Arlington @TakisKarantonis @libbygarvey @Susan4Arlington @maureencoffeyva Arlington County Board should be ensuring that everyone in Arlington has access to affordable housing, not criminalizing and deporting our community members. #ICEoutofArlington

[LaColectiVA703 @LaColectiVA703]

.@Matt4Arlington @TakisKarantonis @libbygarvey @Susan4Arlington @maureencoffeyva ICE enforcement has always been a racist, xenophobic set of policies + practices. Arlington Co should have no part in helping this agency to deport our loved ones and separate families/communities.

[LaColectiVA703 @LaColectiVA703]

.@Matt4Arlington @TakisKarantonis @libbygarvey @Susan4Arlington @maureencoffeyva ICE is a violent, deadly agency with a long track record of abuse, separation of communities, + a white supremacist agenda. All collaboration with this agency must be ended. #ICEoutofArlington

[LaColectiVA703 @LaColectiVA703]

.@Matt4Arlington @TakisKarantonis @libbygarvey @Susan4Arlington @maureencoffeyva Racist criminalization fuels policing and targeting of Black/Brown communities. “Gang databases” expand criminalization, funneling ppl to jail/prison and deportation pipelines. #ICEoutofArlington.

[LaColectiVA703 @LaColectiVA703]

.@Matt4Arlington @TakisKarantonis @libbygarvey @Susan4Arlington @maureencoffeyva Right now Arlington County serves as a pipeline to deportation of community members. Will you take a stand to protect our families, neighbors, and loved ones? #ICEoutofArlington

[Free Them All VA @FreeThemAllVA]

This outcome is only possible due to the 80+students, community members, and advocates who came out today. #ElPuebloUnido

[Free Them All VA @FreeThemAllVA]

The councilmembers pass a unanimous motion, and the Mayor summarizes: "This body has set a motion and voted unanimously to have the town manager investigate any mechanisms by which we could withdraw if we chose to and what that would mean for us at a federal level."

[Free Them All VA @FreeThemAllVA]

Which means... the contract will not be renewed on the 15th, and the town is currently investigating whether they can leave the IGSA altogether! This is one step closer to our goal to #ShutDownICAFarmville and #FreeThemAll !

[Free Them All VA @FreeThemAllVA]

Tonight we’re headed back to the Farmville Town Council to demand they #ShutDownICAFarmville. Join us in person or tune in here for live updates!
