“Have an inside/outside game - you pushing in the inside and partners on the outside to pressure your colleagues to forward progressive policies” @MarionGreene #LP2018
How to limit officers’ interaction with ICE:
1) don’t collect immigration status unless relevant to investigation
2) don’t info share with ICE unless there’s a judicial warrant
3)block all communication and minimize info sharing with ICE as much as possible

“You can’t share information with ICE that you don’t have”
@EricCovey discussing how local policies in VT have protected the community from deportation

Minimizing the amount of immigration information you collect makes it next to impossible for ICE to use it against your communities

“We set up a million dollar legal defense fund in Seattle specifically designed for anyone in deportation proceedings to access legal services. We had to fight the narrative of a ‘good vs bad’ immigrant” @MLorenaGonzalez

“So the only requirements to access this fund is to live or work in Seattle and be in deportation proceedings. We do not ask about criminal record to prevent us from furthering the narrative of good vs bad immigrant” @MLorenaGonzalez

“We also failed to look back at implemented policies. We had to look and see if city employees were actually comply with the policies that we intended to protect immigrants.” @MLorenaGonzalez

The fact is black & brown communities are disproportionately policed. This leads to higher interaction with ICE
Whave to think about the issue rather than the symptoms. What can we do to stop this in the first place. We have to get creative with policies.
