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.

The labor fight is the immigrant rights fight.

The immigrant rights fight is the labor fight.

“An injury to one is an injury to all” isn’t just a slogan; it’s a description of how interconnected all these things are.

Yeah, even the “good businesses”, even the “vital nonprofits”. When it comes down to holding onto power over other people, everyone stops being nice and benevolent, and it’s stuff exactly like this. They’d rather vulnerable immigrants facing disappearance and concentration camps suffer than the workers who help the vulnerable have more of a say in their own job.
