5000 at the Stop Ice rally in Austin with Talarico, Gina, Castro and Casar.

Happy Saturday! We’re out at the Stop ICE Rally in East Austin. Several lawmakers including Joaquin Castro, Talarico & Casar are leading the event. Around 5,000 people are expected to join today. @KUT is following.

Yesterday hundreds of San Antonians joined our rally to end ICE violence—and protect children like Liam Ramos who have been caught up in Trump’s deportation agenda. Enough is enough. Get ICE OUT of our communities.

Jammed-packed house at the Stand for Humanity rally hosted by @Castro4Congress. The brutal tactics from ICE have created a culture of fear and distrust that cannot continue. The American people hold the power to change what’s happening but only if we VOTE. Vote 3/3 and 11/3!

WEDNESDAY: following my visit to the Dilley Immigration Detention Center, I’ll be holding a rally in San Antonio to stand up against ICE violence under Donald Trump. NOW is the time to make your voice heard—I hope to see you there.
