Protecting friends and neighbors from illegal searches

Thanks to Linda T.

Dear Friend,
You may have seen the reports that the Trump Administration is planning a large-scale deportation of immigrants from blue “sanctuary cities.” We must be prepared to protect our friends and neighbors from illegal searches and incarceration.    If you see ICE activity taking place or any marked vehicles, please report it immediately to Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network at 1-844-724-3737.   

Know your rights. Do not open the door. “ICE warrants” authorities may claim to have are not legal to enter your home. ICE warrants must be signed by a local judge to enter your home.   If you need legal assistance, call the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project at 1-800-445-5771.  
Services for immigrants:    El Centro de la Raza   Refugee Women’s Alliance   Chinese Information & Service Center   East African Community Services   The International Rescue Committee in Seattle   Jewish Family Services – 253-850-4065   Archdiocese of Seattle – 206-274-3194  
Please spread these resources on your social media channels and among your communities. These are dark times, but we can get through them if we stick together and look out for each other.  

In solidarity,   Chair Shasti Conrad Washington State Democrats
