(around the Spotify logo) GET ICE OUT OF SPOTIFY

ICE DOESN’T NEED A PLAYLIST.
IT NEEDS ACCOUNTABILITY.

• Cancel your Spotify Premium subscription until Spotify removes all ICE ads
• Demand Spotify immediately terminate all ICE and DHS advertising contracts.
• Urge artists and podcasters to speak out.

Most important info: if you think you see ICE, call the Portland Immigrant Rights Hotline immediately: (888) 622-1510. DO NOT POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA, especially not second-hand info. Very often that spreads rumors and old news, scaring our neighbors instead of helping them.

Home | Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition (PIRC) support immigrant rights through direct assistance, education, legal support, advocacy, and community organizing.

Everyone knows to call 911 in emergencies, right?

Everyone should know: if you think you see ICE in Oregon, call the Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition hotline: (888) 622-1510 pircoregon.org

DON'T POST IT ON SOCIAL MEDIA. That often spreads rumors or old news, causes panic, doesn't help.

Well done, Portland. About 200 people gathered in the AM for a #NoKings rally at James John school and march past the farmers market. Tens of thousands of us later marched downtown. We chanted, "No hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here!" A sign said, "We refuse to dehumanize or be dehumanized."

Spread the word about Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition's hotline far and wide - (888) 622-1510 - either to report possible ICE activity or for immigrants and refugees to find resources such as low-cost legal support.

Grass roots "How do we fight back?" It's been a question on many progressive minds since the Trump Restoration. Turns out the neighborhood level is a good place to start. Traci and Abe are joined by Jeremy Simer ...

Here's an interview we did on KBOO's "Too Much Information with Abe and Traci" in February.
