I just filed notice of appeal in my case.

Since day one, I’ve fought back against the Trump administration’s efforts to silence dissent, punish political opponents and anyone who speaks up, and enact their cruel agenda that hurts our communities. This appeal is the next step in that fight.

I was charged by the Trump administration for conducting legally protected oversight at an ICE facility—I was charged and am being targeted for doing my job. And now I’m facing up to 17 years in prison because of the Trump administration’s meritless charges.

Now, as I head into appeal, I’m asking you to stand strong with me in the fight against this administration. I need your help. Will you split a donation TODAY between DLGA and myself to help me keep fighting and take this legal battle to the next step?

This appeal is for everyone who stands up to this administration’s efforts to stop oversight, operate in the shadows, and silence people’s voices. I will keep fighting to dismiss the Trump administration’s baseless charges against me, and I will keep fighting for all those who stand up for what is right.

Even in the face of the Trump administration’s efforts to intimidate and silence me, I will not stop fighting—but I can’t do it alone. Split a donation between DLGA and myself to help my efforts to beat these baseless charges and win against the Trump administration.

They want to make an example out of me and stop me from doing my job for the people, but I refuse to back down. I am in this for our community and our country, and I need you by my side.

This administration decided to come after me because I dared to stand against their cruel agenda. I will not bow down to the Trump administration, but I need your help.

This case is about more than just me—it’s about what this administration can and will do to those who disagree with them. We have to stand strong, together.

Will you stand with me by splitting a donation between DLGA and myself today?

We won’t back down. Not now, not ever.
