Hey Friend - last week’s victory at the polls proved to us that when we fight, we win. Trump will not see another four years (hallelujah!), the persistence and hard-work of immigrant communities and allies like you did THAT.
Now, as he transitions out - let’s make sure we stay ready for any last possible attacks Trump and his administration may throw at our undocumented friends and family. Here are three ways to immediately take action and make sure your undocu loved ones are protected:
-
Make sure your impacted friends know what to do if they are threatened by ICE and CBP by sharing our Know Your Power infographics on social media:
Share on Twitter
Share on Facebook
-
Check out our article on How U.S. Citizens Can Support the Immigrant Community During Trump's Attacks to learn in greater detail how you can support your immigrant friends.
-
Tell them about the Notifica app and have them make you an emergency contact. Notifica will give your undocu loved ones a help button that’ll alert you if they have an encounter with law enforcement agents.
We need to fight back and share the resources we have to protect the ones we love and our community members. Remember, even when Trump is out of office in January, ICE and CBP will still be with us (for now!), and although these agencies may not respect the rights of our undocu loved ones, they cannot take away our POWER.
Let’s make sure we know what to do and stay alert. We have the power to ensure our communities stay ready.
Counting on you,
Dulce and the rest of the UWD Team
