ICE OUT

More than 300 Arlingtonians have been abducted by ICE.

These are our neighbors. They work and shop at our businesses. They worship with us at our churches, mosques, and temples. Their kids go to APS with our kids and play with them at our parks and playgrounds.

Take action to protect and support our immigrant neighbors.

Advocacy Actions

VIRGINIA STATE LEGISLATORS

Contact Governor-Elect Spanberger and Speaker Scott and your local legislator to ensure that laws are passed protecting our immigrant neighbors (and all Virginians) from being terrorized by ICE.

These laws are neither bold nor rash, nor are they controversial; nor do they cost any taxpayer dollars or protect criminals.

They simply return dignity and humanity to all Virginia residents, make our communities safer, and rid us of unnecessary and unsafe federal interference and entanglements.

Call/Email Gov. Elect Spanberger, Speaker Scott, and your local legislators to ensure the laws providing the protections below are passed.

STATE-LEVEL LAWS THAT NEED TO BE PASSED

  1. Require Judicial Warrants For Arrests And Searches
  2. Keep Ice Out Of Schools, Hospitals, Churches, Food Banks, And More, As Well As Court Houses.
  3. End Federal Entanglements With Virginia Law Enforcement And Detention, Including 287(G) Agreements
  4. End Masking By Law Enforcement And Require Visible ID For All Immigration Agents

All these provisions have extensive and thorough legal notes based on precedent.

Nothing above shall preclude a law enforcement official from otherwise executing that official's duties in investigating violations of criminal law.

ICE is now our country’s largest law enforcement agency and has been illegally deemed immune to checks on its cruelty and abuses of power.
