¡Juntos Podemos Hacer Frente a ICE y a Todos Los Abusos!

Republicans Use Immigrants as Pawns; Democrats Arrest and Deport Them
In the past few weeks, Republican governors in Florida and Texas have put migrants on buses and planes and shipped them off to Democrat-led cities and states in a sickening political stunt, using the immigrants as pawns in their attempts to make the Democrats look bad.
