We’re standing strong with 30 TX orgs that are demanding permanent protections & pathway to citizenship for all #undocumented immigrants.

The death of Jeancarlo Jimenez-Joseph, 27-year-old immigrant who died by suicide after being held in solitary at the Stewart Detention Center for 19 days is only one of many reason detention centers need to be shut down!

It’s official! Yesterday the Biden administration cancelled contracts for border wall construction in Laredo. Congratulations to all the organizers in Laredo who pushed back & WON! Laredo is small, but MIGHTY POWERFUL! #noborderwall #NoBorderWall Coalition

Nearly 160 years ago, immigrants built the transcontinental railroad, connecting the Union Pacific & Central Pacific lines. Yet, today Union Pacific cooperates w/Op. Lone Star, a racist scheme aimed at criminalizing migrants. #EndOpLoneStar Learn more: ilrc.org/open-letter-un…

In light of the profound role immigrants play(ed) at Union Pacific, it's alarming they cont to reassert their cooperation w/Op.LoneStar,Greg Abbott’s scheme to illegally criminalize migrants & prevent them from seeking safety. #endoperationlonestar 👉 ilrc.org/open-letter-un…

UnionPacific MUST STOP participating in the racist & illegal Lone Star scheme! UP can help #EndOpLoneStar by: 1️⃣ Not signing affidavits charging migrants for trespassing in TX rail yards 2️⃣ Issuing a public statement denouncing Op. LoneStar & racial violence against migrants.

.Union Pacific has a long & sordid history of exploiting immigrant workers for profit: history.com/news/transcont… That's why it's especially gross to see the company collude with Greg Abbott's racist (& illegal) Operation Lone Star scheme to detain & criminalize immigrants.
