When ICE agents tear apart our communities, we take to the streets. When the Trump administration tries to silence dissent, we just get louder. Find a No Kings protest near you. www.mobilize.us/nokings/?utm...
The expansion of ICE into airports, including Phoenix Sky Harbor, is wrong. The move will spread fear, confusion, and target travelers just trying to get where they're going. ICE's presence only adds unnecessary tension.
Make sure you know your rights and have a plan.

Mr. Damas is the 10th person to die in immigration custody in 2026.
ICE has a history of abusive conditions and medical neglect in immigration detention, and the rush to expand capacity has only made matters worse.
Lawmakers want Arizona voters to decide the fate of two cruel and discriminatory anti-trans ballot referrals. Contact your legislators and urge them to vote NO on SCR 1006 and HCR 2003.

“Many residents of Marana and communities across Arizona know what is at stake. They know detention centers come at a high cost. They tear families apart, fuel fear, and erode constitutional rights,” said Victoria López, executive director of the ACLU of Arizona.

HB 2175 would give prosecutors broad discretion to determine whose political speech and affiliation is protected – and whose is not. Contact your lawmakers and urge them to vote NO. action.aclu.org/send-message...
HB 2136 is a clear attempt to label everyday Arizonans as terrorists if they criticize the actions of the Trump Administration or ICE. Urge house representatives to vote NO on this blatantly unconstitutional bill. www.azleg.gov/findmylegisl...
Extremist lawmakers are once again targeting trans students, but this time they’re threatening to put their harmful attacks on the ballot.
Let’s be clear: SCR1006 is outright discrimination, plain and simple.

Elected leaders and government officials at every level should be listening.
Arizona’s detention centers are already plagued with serious injustices and abuse. Expanding them isn’t the answer. Surprise, Arizona residents have rightfully voiced opposition to a planned ICE detention center.

Our communities deserve the right to privacy and an end to ICE's invasive practices.
ICE is scanning license plates in parking lots — another escalation in Arizona's use of surveillance technology to expand immigration enforcement. This isn't about public safety. It is about the erosion of privacy through tracking, profiling, and intimidation.

Her remarks confirm what we already know: the SAVE Act and similar bills aim to weaponize baseless fears about immigrant communities to suppress voter turnout among citizens of color.

DHS Secretary Noem joined the chorus of Arizona election deniers to tout federal bills that would harm voters by ending mail-in voting, purging eligible voters from the rolls, and rendering most tribal IDs invalid as proof of citizenship. www.azcentral.com/story/news/p...

Detention sites are known for horrible conditions – with documented instances of abuse and abhorrent medical care that is leading to a record number of deaths.
From Marana to Surprise, communities understand this and are firmly standing against ICE detention expansion in Arizona.
Voting must remain accessible, not bogged down by bureaucratic red tape. Contact your legislators and urge them to vote NO on HCR 2001 and SCR 1001. action.aclu.org/send-message...

Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life to advocating tirelessly for the justice and equality of Black Americans and resisting elected leaders’ deliberate abuse and neglect of our communities.
MLK, Jr.'s words hold true nearly 60 years later: Now is when we must act to fight injustice.
We filed a motion to intervene alongside Common Cause to challenge the DOJ’s demand for sensitive voter data. AZ voters shouldn’t have to sacrifice their privacy to satisfy a baseless federal request.

Peter Yazzie attempted to provide his ID, social security card, and even his birth certificate, but ICE disregarded it all and detained him for 4 hours.
This is brazen racial profiling by an agency that is out of control and endangering our communities. www.azcentral.com/story/news/p...
