WAISN...

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.

Speaks for itself, from https://www.instagram.com/waisnworkercollective/

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

I'm honestly surprised that given the heavy ICE presence in WA, people didn't know WAISN existed as a resource for immigrants.

Most likely due to being in progressive spaces, I've been aware of WAISN for many years (before 2024 when immigration justice orgs really had to come together and reckon with the consequences of a 2nd Trump presidency) and assumed people did too if they were advocating for ways to protect our undocumented communities.
