Yesterday, 50,000 Minnesotans peacefully protested to stop the terror being inflicted on our community. Today, ICE shot and likely killed another constitutional observer on the street. I can’t say this clearly enough: Congress has to stop this. The government is killing us. Congress has to act.

BREAKING: We won!

Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

Make no mistake about it: This administration is trying to take away your ability to protest their new secret police force and even stand next to those who do so, and they are abusing the legal system to do so.

Kat is not afraid. I'm not either. We all have to stand together here. We will win.

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
