Brittney Griner, a WNBA star who was detained in Russia for nearly 10 months, spoke with reporters for the first time since her release in a prisoner exchange in December. “Stay strong. Keep fighting. Don’t give up,” she advised other American detainees. https://t.co/TMtsgWaisw
Today's announced package of new border policies includes several ways U.S. officials can send refugees back to harm without even screening for asylum. This is the United States walking away from core principles of the international refugee protection regime.

Overturning Roe and outlawing abortions will never make them go away.
It only makes them more dangerous, especially for the poor + marginalized.
People will die because of this decision. And we will never stop until abortion rights are restored in the United States of America.
(1) @POTUS & @SecMayorkas have once again said F*%K YOU to immigrants, a thread🧵:
#AlAmin’s request for release was denied by ICE & he’s been taken to a facility in TX as a last stop before deportation. His hand was forcibly used for fingerprints to sign for his own deportation.

Transferring people in the middle of a pandemic is inhumane and dangerous to everyone. How is transferring people when you have the discretion to let them go back to their families different from the last administration? @SecMayorkas#ReleasesNotTransfers is the only way forward!
.@SecMayorkas , ICE contracts in IL end on Feb 12th. Everyone should have the right to fight their immigration case alongside their family & community. Transferring people is inhumane, medically dangerous and unnecessary. Use your power to #FreeThemAll! #ReleaseNotTransfers
After a COVID outbreak, McHenry County Detention has 45 confirmed COVID cases. People have been put in solitary confinement & lack access to soap, masks & hand sanitizers. @SecMayorkas Sylvie Renda @EROChicago it’s time to #FreeThemAll! #ReleasesNotTransfers
While Angela has since been released from detention, everyone still detained at McHenry and Kankakee are going through this. @SecMayorkas & Sylvie Renda @EROChicago do the right thing and #ReleasesNotTransfers#FreeThemAll!
Last year, immigrant communities won the passage of the Illinois Way Forward Act, which will close the remaining ICE detention centers in our state. We are demanding that @EROChicago & @SecMayorkas#FreeThemAll and RELEASE, don't transfer, the 30 people remaining in detention
We call on @EROChicago Sylvie Renda, Acting ICE Field Office Director, and Secretary of Homeland Security @SecMayorkas to #ReleaseNotTransfer everyone who is detained at McHenry and Kankakee!

Powerful article by USPCN & @NAARPR leaders:
"If @RepBowman truly wants 2 uphold progressive values ... he should listen to people in his district & to Black liberation movement. He should support #BDS, disavow & vote against US aid to apartheid Israel"
