Trump’s administration has deployed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as a paramilitary force with no regard for the law. ICE is carrying out a campaign of intimidation and violence targeting immigrants and United States citizens.
ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP)’s lawlessness recently resulted in the murders of Keith Porter, Renée Good, Alex Pretti, and countless detainees. In the aftermath, the administration intensified its assault on First and Second Amendment rights and issued oral directives to ICE to disregard Fourth Amendment protections and pursue warrantless searches of homes.
To defend our communities, Pittsburgh DSA commits to confronting ICE, CBP, and their public and private enablers.
With Pittsburgh DSA’s Committees as its backbone, and in cooperation with allied organizations, our campaign will take a multipronged approach to restrict, delegitimize, and weaken ICE and CBP operations in Allegheny County while building up rapid response infrastructure under the DSA banner.
Join our virtual forum to hear updates on progress Pittsburgh DSA has made and hear ways you can get involved. We'll also have a brief Know Your Rights training.
