Hundreds of people have packed into Chicago's Thalia Hall tonight for a community listening session on CPD collaboration with ICE/CBP.
Police district councillors who gathered petition signatures required to hold tonight's hearing are opening by thanking the community for showing out.
Join us this Veterans Day, shoulder to shoulder with About Face and other allies against the US cycle of endless war, corporate war profiteering, and the militarization and occupation of our communities.
With the escalation of Trumps racist and reactionary agenda on the people, we must fight back!
THE PEOPLE, UNITED, WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED!

Trump's attacks threaten all working and oppressed people. All who stand want safety, dignity and liberation for the people of Chicago and the world are encouraged to join us in the streets to fight back!
As ICE continues to brutalize and kidnap our neighbors, teargas our street corners and threaten our school children and families, we know we can't wait on the courts or elected officials to save us. We must organize, take the streets and stop Trump's agenda with our numbers!
Please join us this Saturday, October 18 at 12 PM near Butler Field/Grant Park for the Hands off Chicago NO KINGS protest!

Stand against Trump's racist, white supremacist agenda. Say NO to the occupation and invasion of our city.
The people, united, will never be defeated!
In response to ICE's increased prescence in our city and Trump's announcement that federal troops will be sent to Chicago to protect ICE agents, we will take to the streets tomorrow to make it clear: the people of this city do not want federal forces in our communities!

❌🧊 ICE OUT OF CHICAGO!! Rally & march on Tuesday, Sept. 9th, 5:00 pm, at Michigan Ave. & Ida B. Wells Dr. in downtown Chicago. This action is organized by the Coalition Against the Trump Agenda @chicago-cata.bsky.social & IL Coalition for Immigrant & Refugee Rights @icirr.bsky.social
!MAUSER, ESCUCHA, ESTAMOS EN LA LUCHA!
#faircontract #workingclass #chicago #mauser #teamsters #solidarity #fightback #strike
In addition to protections from Immigration enforcement, the Mauser workers are also fighting for a fair rase to keep pace with inflation, consistent hours and breaks on the job, and employer-provided uniforms to protect employees from bringing toxic chemicals home to their families.
Since going on strike, these brave workers have drawn attacks from Fox News and other racist enemies of the working class. We must support them in their struggle!
90% of the workers at the Little Village Mauser processing facility are Chicano or Latino, all of them work a hard job to feed their families, and none of them have crossed the picket line in over 90 days.
This morning, September 8, CATA forces joined the Mauser workers from Teamsters local 705 who have been on strike for three months demanding a fair contract that includes protections from ICE raids in the workplace.
This is an illegal military occupation of our city and communities, and we have an inalienable democratic right to resist it!
WHEN THEY COME, WE DON'T FREEZE, WE ORGANIZE, WE TAKE THE STREETS! See you in the streets!
The Coalition Against the Trump Agenda (CATA) and the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) are calling all of Chicago to take a stand in mass demonstration in opposition to any increase in federal troops or militarized forces.
🚨CALLING ALL CHICAGO! Join us in the streets to say "NO TRUMP, NO TROOPS!" this Saturday September 6th at Ida B. Wells and Michigan Ave at 5PM.
