Federal judges in deep-red Trump country 🦅 are sounding the alarm that ICE enforcement is spiraling out of control into full-scale authoritarianism. We need to pass #NY4ALL to limit federal overreach when it comes to immigration enforcement in NYS. 🗽❤️ politico.com/news/2026/03/01…

💔 We are heartbroken by the loss of our compañero Mahoma López Garfias last week. Mahoma was a driving force in our Alliance and a longtime leader of @LWC_workers, where he helped workers organize across NYC & New Jersey. ¡Mahoma, Presente! foodchainworkers.org/2026/02…

We unequivocally condemn the murder of Alex Pretti by ICE, along with the ongoing militarization of Minneapolis that led to his murder. Defending immigrants is not a crime. When that right is violated, especially by federal law enforcement, we demand justice.
