New Mexico Senate approves bill to ban ICE detention centers The New Mexico Legislature approved the Immigration Safety Act. House bill 9 bars the state from allowing ICE detention centers.

This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care.

It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back.

The Horrifying Testimony of Aaliya Rahman
YouTube video by Qasim Rashid The Horrifying Testimony of Aaliya Rahman

Every single person needs to listen to the testimony of Aaliya Rahman, a disabled woman whom ICE dragged from her car, tortured, and nearly killed.

This is fascism, and it is critical we stand united to stop it. Abolish ICE and prosecute its perpetrators. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrDJ...

Elizabeth, a 10-year-old Minnesota girl, spent a month detained at the ICE facility in Dilley, TX before her release last night w/ her mom.

Dilley now has a measles outbreak and hundreds of other kids remain detained. Elizabeth has flu-like symptoms and her mom has hives, a school official told me

If you clicked the consent button and it didn’t send you to where you left off I’ll contact support! But no worries if you don’t have spoons to check. Thank you so much for letting me know.

Oh no that’s such a bummer. When you reloaded it did you happen to click the button on the consent form? Normally you have to reclick the continue to consent button & then it’ll take you right back to where you left off but it might have been bc it was launched via Bluesky? I’m so sorry about that!

Unfortunately the resource list I created is very US-centric due to my own location, and I do apologize for that. But it is definitely open to all.

Hi all. I’m working with @ziibiing.com at standwithminnesota.com to get rents paid for Minnesota families impacted by ICE as soon as possible.

I’m barnraising $2400 for one campaign. I’ll chip in $25.

Please chip in and share this need:

Unless you’re a medical provider, you won’t be answering many questions related to medical care. And there is no treatment involved. It is a social welfare based research study!

Hi everyone getting a few emails about this. This is not a biomedical study or related to a clinical trial. 💓 It is not really related to anything with medicine strictly speaking, but about care and lived experiences with rest and PEM.
