BIG NEWS: ACLU-PA has filed a lawsuit against the Bucks County Sheriff for unlawfully collaborating with ICE through the 287(g) agreement — and we’re proud to stand as a litigant in this case.

We’re standing up for justice — and we’re not backing down.

“This program opens the door of racial profiling and unjust detentions and the criminalization of immigrant families who already live in fear,” said @naacpbucks.bsky.social President Adrienne King. “It will tear communities apart ..." #BucksCounty #Pennsylvania #immigrants #ICE #dueprocess #Justice

We stand in strong opposition to the 287(g) agreement — a policy that endangers immigrant communities & fuels racial profiling. It turns local law enforcement into an extension of ICE, eroding trust and safety. Let’s protect our neighbors, not criminalize them. #Stop287g #SolidarityNotSurveillance

We're proud to share the success of our recent voter registration event at the Bucks County Correctional Facility. We worked to ensure that eligible individuals had the opportunity to have their voices heard. Every completed application will be hand-delivered to the County BoE for processing. #vote

"Does it matter that he supported the Oathkeepers?" a retired agent said.
