St. Paul: End the war on immigrants, Feb. 20

Event by MIRAC – Minnesota Immigrant Rights Action Committee, Twin Cities Coalition for Justice 4 Jamar and MN-Drivers Licenses for All, MN Immigrant Movement-MIM

Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building
Saturday, February 20, 2021 at noon

Join us for a rally outside the Whipple Federal Building — which houses Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) — to demand an immediate end to the war on immigrants.

In it’s first month, the new administration has taken some welcome actions to start to undo Trump’s anti-immigrant policies. But ICE abuses of immigrants continue, and there’s a lot more work to do. Just hitting rewind to 2016 is not enough.

Join MIRAC’s ‘End the War on Immigrants’ campaign to demand:

* Legalization for All
* Close the camps
* No kids in cages
* No border militarization
* No wall on Native land
* End abuses in ICE jails including forced sterilization
* Immediate access to COVID-19 vaccine for all people in ICE detention who want it

On February 20 you can also support MIRAC’s work to give direct aid to immigrant communities by ordering food from El Tejebán restaurant in Richfield who are donating 15% of their profits that day – details here:
