Whistles! Let’s organize to give everyone whistles and teach the ICE alert codes!

Whistles are helping Chicago resist. Let’s learn from their experience
Poster for Whistles as ICE alert tool. Text says: WHISTLES! instant alert system Simple, effective, faster than social media Together we keep our community safe HOW WHISTLES WORK -wear a whistle - if you spot ICE, blow your whistle -when you hear a whistle, either: - get to safety - follow the sound, form a crowd, stay loud WHISTLE CODE 1: ice nearby If ice is driving or lurking: blow in short blasts. pre—pre—pre—pre WHISTLE CODE 2: abduction If ice is abducting someone: blow continuously. Preeeeeeeeee-preeeeeee

Our rights don't disappear when we're on the road. 

Scroll through the thread to learn more about your rights when interacting with immigration agents on public transit. 

📲 Or read the full guide here: https://www.aclu-wa.org/know-your-rights/your-rights-immigration-agents-trains-and-buses/
Light orange graphic that reads: "Know Your Rights with Immigration Agents on Trains and Buses." There is a picture of a city bus under the title, an ACLU WA logo at the bottom, and an arrow indicating more information.

Just a quick update that the whistle fund is now focused on supporting a loose coalition of 3D print enthusiasts who are shipping whistles to any community in the US.

If you’re interested in receiving 100-1000+ free 3D printed whistles, email whistlerequests @ proton [dot] me

I was talking with some of the whistle folks and we guess over a quarter of a million whistles have been distributed in Chicagoland since September. Does this sound right to anyone else? Too high? Too low?

Santa came early this year!!!

James in West Seattle wanted to help expand whistle production, so he bought *FIVE* 3D printers. He kept one; the other four are going to new homes in the Seattle area and Tri-Cities.

Thank you doesn’t quite seem adequate, but THANK YOU James!

Since I've been organizing some whistles getting to folks who need them today, a reminder that if you have a 3D printer and want to be part of this effort, reach out to me. (If I missed you before, sorry, getting sick knocked me off my feet!)

And if you see anyone who needs whistles, tag me!

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Boosting this virtual training opportunity tomorrow (Wednesday!)

Register in advance for this webinar:
zoom.us/webinar/regi...
Twin Cities ICE Watch / Migra Watch - Wednesday, Dec 3, 2025 at 6pm CT The Twin Cities is currently under federal occupation. Join States at the Core and Protect RP to learn important lessons from direct experiences on the ground in the neighborhoods in Chicago that most stood up to an even more intense Federal invasion from "Operation Midway Blitz" This training will share important skills for documenting ICE activity and supporting neighbors in your community. ICE Watch is a key strategy being used by groups across the country to protect their communities against aggressive activity by ICE agents. Practicing ICE Watch protects our neighborhoods from immigration enforcement by ensuring our community members know their rights, have a plan, and know how to act in the event of targeting by ICE. In addition to covering the basics of ICE Watch, we will discuss new analysis on ICE operations and safety guidance.

An attempted abduction was stopped this morning by multiple people honking car horns, successfully warning the person and driving off the ICE agents.

Use what you’ve got!

Don’t have a whistle on you? Bang pots and pans, car horn, bike bells.
