It was a long week

We’ll start this newsletter with some wins to celebrate this week:

On Saturday, 700 people attended the ICE Out for Good pop-up protest in Corvallis. This is a great turnout for a protest that we started planning on Thursday night!
The Visibility Brigade deployed an “ICE OUT FOR GOOD” banner on an I-5 overpass.
Nearly 1200 ICE Out for Good events occurred around the country!
Avelo Airlines will no longer operate ICE deportation flights.
Spotify is no longer running ICE recruitment ads.
Seventeen House Republicans joined the Democrats to pass a measure extending the Affordable Care Act tax credit by a vote of 230–196. It now heads to the Senate.
Senators voted to advance a bill that would stop the Trump administration from additional attacks on Venezuela without congressional approval. The vote was 52–47, with five Republicans joining all the Democrats to move the measure forward.

Americans are waking up to the brutality of this administration. Now is the time for the People to make our voices heard. Contact your elected officials. Use your hard-earned dollars to support business who don’t enable fascism. Protect our vulnerable community members. Keep hope alive. This is how we do it, one week at a time.
