📣 ACTION ALERT 📣

STOP THE DEPORTATION OF ICE DETAINEES IN ALEXANDRIA, LOUISIANA! 

 
UnLocal client Javier Castillo Maradiaga and many others detained by ICE in Louisiana are scheduled to be deported on Monday 1/25 at 2:00 AM, despite the new Biden/Harris administration’s promise of a 100 day deportation moratorium!
 
ICE claims that the moratorium doesn’t apply to him or the others scheduled for deportation and plans to deport them in a matter of hours. 
 
Javier, like so many DACA-mented people, has been living here since he was 7 years old and has only known the Bronx as his home. 
 
Join his family and loved ones in the demand for accountability! 
 
Even with a new administration, ICE continues its flagrant disregard of the law! We cannot turn our backs on Javier and the many like him now. Lift your voices and help us demand their freedom!
 
SEE YOU THERE!
