For New York to truly be a welcome home to migrants, we must end immigration detention TODAY. Join us in calling on our legislators to pass #DignityNotDetention to finally get New York out of the practice of detaining migrants and separating families. nydignitynotdetention.org/take-action
We are in Albany, NY today to speak with our legislators about the Dignity Not Detention Act. Let’s get New York State to end immigrant detention so that families and communities can live in freedom and dignity! #immigrantjustice
📢NY is failing migrants on multiple fronts — inadequate shelter for migrants, xenophobic rhetoric, and infamously inhumane detention. Passing the #DignityNotDetention Act to end immigration detention in NY State is a necessary and urgent step forward in the right direction.
ICE contracts with local jails like Orange County Jail and then tries to avoid accountability for the treatment of people held there. Another reason that New York should stop allowing government entities to enter into such agreements in the first place.
