Hey, if you're #PVDlocal & recognize that "reasonable suspicion" is A) illegal & 2) hot bullshit, please join me this coming Monday to speak in support of a BAN on police cooperation with these vicious, racist federal goons.

MONDAY, 10/6, 5:30pm
Providence City Hall (25 Dorrance St), 3rd floor

#PVDlocal: The Mayor's promises that PPD won't cooperate with ICE have proved empty. On 10/6, City Council's holding a hearing that could lead to a prohibition on police-ICE cooperation, as well as some protections for schools & courts. Get your testimony ready. 10/6, 5:30pm, City Hall, 3rd floor

#PVDlocal / #RIlocal, here are some ways to defend our neighbors against ICE kidnappings & brutality:

- Put this number in your phone: 401-675-1414. It's the ICE defense hotline. You can call if you see ICE or DHS agents; you can also call to ask how to become an operator or a verifier. (1/2)

I just dropped off a few HEPA air purifiers & a mini AC at their office. If you're #PVDlocal, more ACs & air purifiers would be most welcome--air quality sucks rn, apartments are hot & babies have allergies & asthma

An addition from a #PVDlocal group: 1 or more members can apply for a sole proprietorship. App fees are lower & if you balance income/expenses the income won't be taxed. (It will get more complicated if you're paying wages, & some expenses are only partially deductible.) (2/3)

#PVDlocal / #RIlocal: If you're free on weekday mornings, can you help patrol outside the courthouse to prevent ICE kidnappings? M-F, 8am-12pm, 6th District Court (1 Dorrance Plaza, Providence). The more people the less likely ICE is to try to seize someone. Film cops & ICE, not fellow patrollers!
