DAILY ACTION 1.27.17

STATE ACTION ITEM:
Fearing a loss of millions of dollars for defying immigration authorities, Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez on Thursday ordered county jails to comply with federal immigration detention requests — effectively gutting the county’s position as a “sanctuary” for immigrants in the country illegally.

Gimenez cited an executive order signed Wednesday by President Donald Trump that threatened to cut federal grants for any counties or cities that don’t cooperate fully with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Since 2013, Miami-Dade has refused to indefinitely detain inmates who are in the country illegally and wanted by ICE — not based on principle, but because the federal government doesn’t fully reimburse the county for the expense.

STEP 1:
URGENT: Call 305-375-5071 today and tell Miami-Dade Mayor that you stand with undocumented immigrants and he should too. Keep us a sanctuary.

STEP 2:

In all the years I've ridden on the Washington DC Metro, L'enfant Plaza station was NEVER so crowded that the train didn't stop. Until 1/21/17 on that day the train didn't stop at L'enfant plaza & there were so many of us shouting in & outside the train shook. I think the entire station must have shaken. BTW one of my younger sisters marched in New York & one in Oregon.
