Friend,
ICE, Border Patrol, and other federal agents are escalating enforcement across Louisiana and our communities are paying the price. Parents are afraid to take their kids to school. I mean just this weekend, parents were detained by masked agents while en route to their child’s school Christmas program. Families are being separated with no answers and no transparency.
We want to share critical resources and updates, sourced directly from the Free the Swamp December 16 Communicators Memo, so you have the information you need to stay safe, stay informed, and support your neighbors.
🚨 If you see ICE or Border Patrol activity
Call the Rapid Response Hotline: (504) 221-1499
Know Your Rights
Key updates you should know
-
Border Patrol is reportedly leaving New Orleans temporarily and has been spotted in Baton Rouge.
-
Even Republican Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser has spoken out, saying the operation is hurting Louisiana’s economy: hotels, restaurants, and construction sites are struggling because workers are afraid to show up.
-
Officials report that only about 10% of those detained have criminal records. Families are being taken with no public information about where they’re held or what’s happening to them.
Ways to help on the ground:
These organizations are already doing the work and need volunteers, donations, and support:
We strongly encourage you to sign up for Free the Swamp’s emails to stay up to date with verified information and rapid-response resources but we’ll continue to share updates with you as well.
In solidarity,
Lauren Loisel
