ICE attacks in communities throughout Minnesota have forced many immigrant families into hiding! Through 287(g) agreements between local law inforcement and ICE officials, we have seen a constant drumbeat of arrests, detention and deportations. Immigrant families and businesses are devastated. Though the ICE SURGE has lessened, the fear and trauma continue in our community.
MIRAC is fund-raising to support our immigrant communities throughout the state during this time of fear and intimidation from federal officials. We are also fund-raising to support families who have one member in ICE detention. We are leading a movement to say No More Deportations and to say No More Collaboration between local public safety officials and federal ICE officers.
