John,
Our billboards are up across Minneapolis making one thing clear: ICE agents are not above the law, they can be arrested, prosecuted and go to jail for breaking state laws.
Democracy for America AF is partnering with our allies at HollywoodDemocrats.com to take on ICE directly in the streets of Minneapolis. Please rush a donation to keep these billboards up in high-profile, can’t-miss locations across the city now.
ICE has built its power on secrecy, intimidation, and impunity. Masked agents, unmarked vehicles, and aggressive raids are designed to create fear while avoiding accountability. Our billboards cut straight through that strategy by telling the truth in plain language and by giving people a concrete, lawful way to respond.
First, we’re putting ICE on notice. Illegal conduct that breaks state law – like kidnapping, manslaughter, and murder – can be prosecuted, even when it is carried out by federal agents.
Next, we’re letting the public know the most effective way to report ICE when ICE agents break the law: Call 911.
Local emergency services are run by local governments. Every call is recorded. Those records cannot be erased, and they can be obtained by the media through public records requests.
Today, our billboards are up in Minnesota, but we’re ready to take this national. Cities like Portland, Los Angeles, and others are being terrorized by the same lawless tactics. These billboards work, and with enough support, we can put them everywhere ICE operates with impunity.
Contribute to keep these billboards up in Minneapolis and help us expand this campaign to hold ICE accountable in other cities across the country now.
Together, we can stop ICE’s lawless conduct and demand accountability.
