A Facebook post from the Milwaukee Turners ""Years from now, your family and neighbors will ask what you did to help, where you were, how you mattered. I hope that you make it count. The ideas and tools in this legislation are an important step in protecting our city’s legacy and safety. The Milwaukee Turners are happy to work with all of you – and with the City of Milwaukee – to help ensure that our city remains strong, diverse, unified and undaunted." Our Executive Director Emilio De Torre was proud to stand by members of the Common Council as they introduced "ICE Out MKE," aimed at protecting public safety, ensuring transparency and accountability, upholding constitutional rights, and strengthening Milwaukee's long-term population and economic growth."
Yesterday, #Milwaukee Common Council has introduced the "ICE Out MKE Initiative," a package of approximately 12 pieces of legislation aimed at protecting residents if ICE agents come to Milwaukee. The initiative focuses on public safety, transparency and constitutional rights. #Wisconsin #ICE

Last Friday, Minnesota launched a general strike that shut down Minneapolis. On January 30, the movement goes nationwide. No work. No school. No shopping.
When we withhold our labor, divest our dollars and stand together in solidarity, the people have real power.

A flyer from Voces de la Frontera that reads, "Madison: It's not ICE. We want to clarify that reports of a possible ICE presence in several areas of Madison are false. There is no ICE presence related to immigration enforcement. The sightings reported involve federal and local law enforcement agencies engaged in non-immigration-related activity. We thank our community for remaining vigilant and for not sharing unverified information. Let's continue to prioritize calm, solidarity, and verification before sharing information."
From Voces de la Frontera:
COMMUNITY NOTICE – RUMOR CLARIFIED. Help us keep the community informed and protected. At this time, there are no alerts / emergencies for ICE in the area of Madison.
#Wisconsin #Madison #ICE
Everyone is on edge right now and, while it's in good intentions to stay vigilant for our neighbors and community, we have to be smart. We should only share verified information with each other, not rumors or hearsay which only leads to more anxiety and unease.
A graphic that reads: FALSE: Ice in Milwaukee Hotels. over the last several days we have received numerous reports of ICE renting hotel rooms in Milwaukee. As of today, these have all been false.
Staying on the same page! Rumors were running rampant regarding #ICE agents staying at the Hilton in downtown #Milwaukee today. However, that is confirmed as FALSE.
🪧 Protest Notification -- happening in Eau Claire, #Wisconsin tomorrow at 3:30 outside of the Federal Courthouse on the corner of Lake street and Barstow. We'll then march down to Phoenix Park where we will hear from a few speakers and community leaders. Join in solidarity with #Minnesota! #ICEOut
