Sign Wave for those ICE has Killed, and to Recognize Surviving in Inhumane Conditions
Join us in a Resistance Event Against ICE. RECORD NUMBERS IN DETENTION, RECORD NUMBERS OF LIVES LOST. Sign Wave on US 1 in front of the Police Station.
The number of people being held in immigration detention in the United States has already grown to the highest level in our history. The Migration Policy Institute estimates it could nearly double in the months to come, putting more than 100,000 people in the camps by January.
This increase has come largely at the expense of those who are far from “the worst of the worst,” with a 2,000% increase in the number of detainees without criminal records. The conditions our friends and neighbors are being held in are reportedly poor.
They face overcrowding, spoiled food, non-potable water, lack of access to showers and clean clothes, abuse, and medical neglect, and there’s no relief in sight. 2025 has already been the deadliest year to be in ICE custody in decades.
