Rep Grijalva's responsibility is to ask questions and stand up for the community — not be punished for it, let alone pepper-sprayed by ICE. When violence replaces due process, it puts everyone’s basic rights at risk. Accountability is a must. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
Rep. Adelita Grijalva says she was 'sprayed in the face' during ICE confrontation
Grijalva said that she identified herself as a member of Congress and saw "people directly sprayed," including press and members of her staff.

Our country is made stronger by the #BraveOfUS, those who moved to make a better life for our families. But instead of celebrating our contributions, the Trump admin is putting billionaires over working families.

Marka27's exhibit Elevar La Cultura shows the truth: America works because we do.

Somalis are essential workers and union leaders in MN and across the nation, strengthening our communities, workplaces, and economy. A threat to one of us is a threat to all of us. Working people have each other’s backs and refuse to be intimidated.

Minnesota is strongest when we protect each other, not when our communities are targeted and terrorized by ICE and deportation flights. We’re fighting back with prayer, unity, and action.

TMRW: We’ve watched in horror as neighbors and coworkers are taken by masked ICE agents—targeted for our skin color, language, or where we live and work—with no respect for due process. Join us and rally at MSP to end ICE flights and push for fair wages for airport workers!

America has a long history of exploiting immigrant workers, even as it benefits from their contributions to the economy. It’s past time that we create more legal paths that allow them to fix their paperwork and become U.S. citizens.

Today, the Trump administration announced that it would terminate work permits and deportation protections for nearly 4,000 Burmese who have lived and worked in the U.S. for years. This separates families and fuels Trump's cruel deportation agenda. #TPSjustice

David Huerta's courage in standing with immigrant workers embodies the best of America’s democratic values. It's how we show up for our neighbors, coworkers, and families. It's how we peacefully fight back as this administration turns its military on its own people. #JusticeForDavid
