Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid

Good morning, yesterday DC Council signed into law that they don’t give a shit about unhoused people!

@LegalAidDC tweet “This is the DC Council's last chance to save Alliance and save lives in DC! Call NOW before the vote at 12 today @ChmnMendelson: 202-724-8032 @CMCHenderson: 202-724-8105”

@LegalAidDC tweet “Let’s break down what it would cost to save key parts of Alliance for one year: 🔹$9.5M to keep income requirements the same 🔹$11.9M to keep enrollment open for those 26+ 🔹$21.5M to not reduce services to adults 🔹$1.3M to not reduce services for children”

Screenshot of @LegalAidDC “For the record: Since day 1 of this budget cycle, we’ve been asking for *less than $50M* to save Alliance healthcare coverage for 28,000 members of DC’s immigrant community. That’s not even 0.3% of the total #DCbudget.”

From forced migration, kidnapping, and ICE concentration camps to the Israeli genocide in Palestine, US imperialism is one of, if not, the most harmful forces on Earth.

Our struggles are intertwined, and so should be our fight for liberation.

Document Casts Doubt on White House’s Claims About Deported Venezuelans

President Trump repeatedly claims he's powerless to bring back the men wrongfully deported to an infamous prison in El Salvador.

We just revealed documents in court showing that the El Salvador government agrees it's the Trump administration that bears responsibility for the fate of these men.
