Tearing Apart Families

Yet again, this morning ICE (immigration and customs enforcement) was out doing raids. This is the third raid that I am aware of within the last month. They targets the same place of employment and apartment complex in the last two raids!

In the last raids, ICE used illegal tactics to detain individuals and take documentation. We are currently unaware of the details of this mornings raid. However, there is confirmation that at least one male has been detained by ICE.

How much more can a community take! Men are being ripped apart from their families! Young children are being traumatized by these raids! Women are being left to care for children without their fathers!

Anyone from Michigan that is not in support of these autrocities in our communities, please contact your state representative and tell them 'No to HB 6256'!

If you do not know your representative, look it up here... http://house.michigan.gov/find_a_rep.asp

And please contact the members of the Judiciary committee, where the bill is currently located...

Tell them you do not support local police enforcing federal laws by racial profiling! And Michigan cannot afford to be another Arizona!
