Mayor Whitmire admits what we all know. The Houston Police Department has been facilitating the abduction of our neighbors and cooperating with ICE.

Investigative reporting has uncovered that HPD drove 30 minutes to give a member of our community to ICE. HPD is going above and beyond what their General Orders and state law require. HPD is violating our immigrant community’s constitutional rights, and we must demand action.

For months Houston Leads and our Houston DSA Immigrant Justice Campaign have been informing people about HPD collaboration with ICE, talking to affected communities, and building public pressure to make City Council defend immigrants. On Tuesday, March 31st, we are mobilizing to City Council’s evening public session at 5:00 pm to make the voices of immigrants and our demands clear. City Council must limit collaboration to the fullest extent allowable under state law and end non-safety traffic stops.

To testify at City Council, you must register by Monday, March 30th. Information on registration will be sent after RSVP.
