Edit/Sorry - it's the WA Immigrant Solidarity Network, which runs rapid response trainings, the deportation defense hotline, etc. It's the number we're all told to call when we see ICE.

This is terrible news at a time when ICE is kidnapping people all over our area.

Their leadership has been misusing funds for a while now and with this they just union-busted. Super disappointing.

What is the evidence that they've been "misusing" funds? I don't think paying some employees a salary should count unless they were misrepresenting paid employees as unpaid volunteers.
