Immigrant Solidarity

Oklahoma Organizers Share How They Halted An ICE Warehouse

The recent move from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to convert empty or surplus warehouses into large-scale ICE detention centers has produced a new terrain of struggle in the fight against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). A notable departure from ICE’s existing detention system, which largely relies on contracts with county sheriff’s departments and privately run prison companies, this initiative is expanding and consolidating the federal government’s capacity to cage immigrants. Proposed ICE warehouses are largely in areas near logistics hubs, many of which are in towns that voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 election.

Protesters Fill Capitol, Read Letters From Children Held In Immigration Custody

Saint Paul, MN — More than 100 people filed into the Minnesota State Capitol on Feb. 26 to protest the prolonged detainment of children in Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities around the country. The crowd, led into the capitol building by the immigrant rights-oriented nonprofit Unidos MN to protest a legislative session, pooled into the second floor outside of the Senate Chamber as an array of speakers read letters sent by children detained in ICE detention centers in Texas aloud. The protest follows a recent trend in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detaining more and more children, the Associated Press reported.

Haitians In The US Mobilize Against ICE And Deportation Threats

A federal judge blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 300,000 Haitian immigrants in the US, following intense pressure from over 300 labor unions, faith groups, and rights advocates. The victory however, has done nothing to quell the outrage at the government’s efforts to terminate the protections. Community groups say tens of thousands of Haitian immigrants are especially vulnerable as ICE forces are set to deploy to Haitian hubs in the state of Ohio, Springfield and Columbus, according to a leaked White House memo.

Detroiters Demand City Council Ban ICE From Communities

Detroit—Demonstrating through the bitter cold, Detroiters rallied at the Spirit of Detroit statue on Tuesday before a City Council meeting to demand an end to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations in their communities. The action centered on a resolution submitted by Councilmember Gabriela Santiago-Romero that would prohibit ICE from schools, religious institutions, clinics, and all city property. “If our neighbors are not safe and free, then we are not safe and free,” said Board of Police Commissioner Victoria Camille of District 7, who joined the action. “Immigration status matters should not be handled with masks, guns, chemical spray, battering rams, and handcuffs.

ICE Wants To Reopen Notorious California Prison

On December 16, 2025, the Dublin City Council in California unanimously passed a resolution formally opposing reopening or reusing the notorious FCI Dublin prison for detention of any kind, including as an immigration jail. The resolution also urged the relevant federal agencies to “engage in open and transparent communication with the City regarding any decisions affecting the site.” The resolution comes after months of organizing by local and regional residents and a coalition of faith-based organizations, advocacy groups, and those who were imprisoned in FCI Dublin.

Minnesotans Demand ICE Out Of Twin Cities

St. Paul, MN – Dozens of Minnesotans gathered in the pouring rain on Tuesday, November 25 to show their solidarity with those affected by federal immigration raids. The Trump administration is launching racist attacks through ICE in Saint Paul. Meanwhile there are no official protections for the most vulnerable against this violence. The rally by the Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee (MIRAC) took place outside of Bro-Tex Inc. in Saint Paul. It is a manufacturing company where an ICE raid took place one week earlier on November 18.

NYC To ICE: Get Out!

Many New Yorkers now carry a whistle to sound the alarm when they see teams of armed masked agents in fatigues and tactical gear who have started to menace the city, from Washington Heights to East Elmhurst. Others are texting each other in groups they created on the encrypted messaging app Signal. “I was getting notifications in our chat that ICE was knocking on doors, so we rushed over here to see what was happening,” said a Bensonhurst resident, who told AMNY they saw agents abduct a woman described as a young mother with an 8-month old baby.

31 Protesters Arrested Outside Krome Detention Center, ‘Alligator Alcatraz’

West Miami-Dade, Florida - Hours after over two dozen activists were arrested outside Krome Detention Center, some of those arrestees bonded out of jail. 7News cameras captured a dozen young people wearing “ICE kidnapped my neighbor” T-shirts making their way out of the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Facility in Northwest Miami-Dade on Sunday morning.

Portlanders Mobilize To The ICE Facility For Fourth Weekend In A Row

Portland, OR – Despite a rainstorm, hundreds of Portlanders mobilized on Saturday, October 25 to the Portland ICE Facility to protest the deployment of the National Guard and increased ICE attacks, and to demand the city revoke the land use permit for the ICE Facility. One protester was arrested during the event. In less than a month the city can begin the process of revoking the permit for the ICE facility. “It is not [the Portland city council] that lends its permission to operate the ICE facility, but ours. As such, the decision is ours to end permissive behaviors to rogue groups [such as ICE] that seek solely to break our common bonds,” Jason Ohmann, a protester and member of the safety team at the protest stated, adding, “It is important to protest ICE to protect all the members of our community – we are not asking them to heed our wishes and stand down.

As Trump Escalates ICE Raids, Local Community Defense Networks Grow

The Trump administration has pledged to continue ramping up the controversial operations to detain and deport immigrants. Yet, as his threats intensify, the movement in defense of immigrant rights is rapidly growing and taking shape from the grassroots. In Chicago, people are standing up to federal agents armed and ready to deploy tear gas and pepper spray. Army veterans in Portland are urging federal troops to disobey Trump’s orders, and in Colorado, residents are rejecting the conversion of several private prisons into ICE detention centers.

How Chicago Residents Are Resisting ICE Invasion Of The City

If there’s one thing President Donald Trump and the people of Chicago might agree on, it’s that America’s third-largest city is currently a ​“war zone.” But for most Chicagoans, it’s the Trump administration that has made it so, with its military-style ​“Operation Midway Blitz,” led by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and ​“Operation At Large,” which Customs and Border Protection (CBP) launched in Los Angeles and brought to the Windy City in September. “I have lived here for 28 years and I have never felt so profoundly unsafe until this week,” one resident recently posted on social media.

Thousands Protest Outside Portland ICE Facility

Portland, OR – On October 12, thousands of protesters convened in front of the Portland ICE Facility in the pouring rain to stand against the deployment of the National Guard and demanding the permit of the ICE Facility to be revoked. A protest was called by Portland Contra Las Deportaciones (PDXCD) in collaboration with Portland for Palestine (P4P), the Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO), Revoke the ICE Permit (RIP) and Tesla Takedown PDX. Organizers like Cass Cano, detained last week by ICE and DHS while protesting, spoke out against the repression faced by protesters, as well as ICE’s continued terrorization of immigrants, stating, “They detained my comrades and are hoping we would be scared and stop fighting, but we won’t stop until the facility is shut down and ICE is out of Portland.”

Chicago Residents ‘Refuse To Budge’ As ICE Terrorizes Communities

From hunting people down through the aisles of retail stores, to intentionally crashing into a vehicle on a residential street and then deploying tear gas against a gathered crowd of residents and protesters, agents with the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement have been wreaking havoc in Chicago as part of their “Operation Midway Blitz”. According to the Department of Homeland Security, federal agents have made more than 1,500 arrests in the greater Chicago area since September 8 when the operation was announced – although data reveals some of these arrests to be outside of the state of Illinois.
