*HELP DEFEND OUR COMMUNITIES, WORKERS, AND UNIONS !*
*RESIST IMMIGRATION RAIDS AND FIRINGS!*
Raids and the threat of more raids is upon us. Please join us at training about workplace raids and immigration
enforcement:
The legal rational for workplace enforcement – called Employer Sanctions –
became part of immigration law in 1986. Since then workplace raids –
sometimes called ’silent raids’ – have been a mainstay of immigration
enforcement and will likely ramp up under the Trump regime. Immigration
enforcement has included firings for immigration status, raids and
detentions at work, street corner raids and others. Trump promises to
unleash all of those strategies to round up and deport thousands of
immigrants.
*The training has 3 goals:
Educate advocates about how workplace enforcement has played out here in
the SF Bay Area (through multiple examples) and lessons learned,
Strengthen immigrant defense through know your rights education and a
system of support/solidarity for immigrants who are picked up; and
Plan creative political responses from the labor, faith and general
community.
Help our communities, workers, and unions get ready.
Everyone is welcome – knowing our past workplace enforcement history and
sharing critical rights information is important for all advocates
preparing to resist Trumps attacks on immigrants and refugees.
