West Coast #CloseTheCamps Protests vs. Trump's camps - Tue., July 2

Protest Trump's camps! - Tuesday, July 2, 2019 afternoon update - From Closethecampsnow.org:

All times Pacific Savings Time

We've seen the images and heard the stories coming out of child detention centers. Horrifically, these conditions aren't an accident. They are the byproduct of an intentional strategy by the Trump administration to terrorize immigrant communities and criminalize immigration—from imprisoning children in inhumane conditions to threatening widespread raids to break up families to covering up reports of immigrants dying in U.S. custody and abuses by ICE and CBP agents.

It’s going to take all of us to close the camps.

This Tuesday, July 2, while members of Congress are home for the Fourth of July holiday,
we will gather at their local offices in protest. Our demands:
  1. Close the Camps
  2. Not One Dollar for Family Detention
 and Deportation
  3. Bear Witness and Reunite Families
