🚨 JAAMergency 🚨 Trump is days away from invading Chicago while bragging about bombing a boat near Venezuela.

Murders are at a sixty year low but he wants the Guard in our streets and ICE running raids during Mexican Independence Day. Eleven people were killed by a two million dollar missile in waters near Venezuela because he called it a drug bust. This is not protection, this is occupation.

Military Deployment Prep Kit

Gov. Pritzker announced that Trump is staging the Texas National Guard for deployment to Chicago. And, along with ICE, will likely target Mexican Independence Day celebrations (Sept 14-16).

With that in mind, we'd like to share a number of resources to help you get loud about what's happening and support our neighbors.

Finally, the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant & Refugee Rights (ICIRR) is planning a snap protest (as seen in the attached image) to be held at the intersection of IDA B. Wells & Michigan Ave downtown. 

If troops arrive before 3pm, a same-day protest will take place at 5pm. If they arrive after 3pm, a next-day protest will take place at 5pm.
