Organizer, Activist, Advocate for Workers’ Rights
At the moment. I am participating in the ICE OUT OF NY campaign with the National Day Laborer Organizing Network. We are calling on people of conscience to stand with immigrants in their community—literally. To go to the places immigrants gather to work or look for work—Home Depots, car washes, delis, day-labor centers, hiring sites—as allies, witnesses, neighbors and friends. Adopt a Corner is an immediate, urgent call to action, grounded in solidarity. We the people need to defend our communities and one another NOW against our government’s campaign of intimidation, assault, arrests and violence.
NYFORALL campaign.
The New York for All Act will protect immigrant New Yorkers, keep families together, and preserve state and local resources to uphold the state’s public safety priorities. The New York for All Act broadly prohibits state and local officers from enforcing federal immigration laws, funneling people into ICE custody, and sharing sensitive information with federal immigration agents. It also ensures that people in custody are informed of their rights before being interviewed by ICE. Finally, it prohibits ICE and CBP from entering non-public areas of state and local property without a judicial warrant and begins the process of limiting their access to state information databases.
