6/5 (in person, Plymouth MA) 5:30 - Protest at Plymouth's ICE Facility: End Plymouth County Correctional Facility's ICE Agreement NOW! (Indivisible & partners)

Join Indivisible and partners in protesting outside the Plymouth ICE facility on June 5th from 5:30-7pm, 26 Long Pond Rd., Plymouth MA

We need your voices! We will not normalize these abductions!

This a local Indivisible event! Sheriff McDonald, End Plymouth County Correctional Facility’s ICE Agreement NOW! Plymouth County Correctional Facility should not be helping ICE kidnap innocent residents!

Date: Thursday, June 5, 2025 Time: 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM Location: Sidewalks and grassy areas near the All Town Fresh intersection, outside of Plymouth County Correctional Facility (PCCF) 26 Long Pond Road, Plymouth MA

PCCF is the only facility in the state of Massachusetts with an ICE agreement. The agreement allows ICE to house migrants. The renewed 5 year contract signed last year increased the immigrant detention capacity by 35%.

“”Do you worry that you’re complicit in sending people out of the country who shouldn’t be sent out of the country?” he was asked. “I know there’s a lot of very good and earnest people who are working very hard to verify that the ones that we are deporting or taking into custody are really the ones that need to be taken into custody and deported to enhance our public safety. So, do I worry about it? I don’t worry about it, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t concerned. I always have that concern,” McDonald said.” https://www.wcvb.com/article/massachusetts-ice-holding-facility-plymouth-county/64445839

Kidnapping innocent, working, tax paying residents off the streets, without due process, is not public safety!

The Due Process Clause(s) : 5th amendment: “…nor shall any person…be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law…” 14th amendment: “…nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law…”

A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

Goals and Demands:

  1. Ban ICE Detainers and Holds

  2. End contracts that allow Plymouth County Sheriff’s Office to house ICE detainees or provide ICE related services.

  3. We call on Governor Maura Healey to use her authority to protect Massachusetts immigrant communities by declaring a statewide policy of non-cooperation with ICE and other federal agencies that ignore due process and act outside the rule of law. Statewide policy shall include that if called to the scene, local or state police will act to prevent extrajudicial kidnappings of MA residents. They shall verify a) the authenticity of an agent’s identification (i.e., badge), and b) their authority to arrest the person in question (i.e., warrant).

  4. We call on Attorney General Andrea Campbell to pursue prosecution of ICE for kidnapping Massachusetts residents under state law.

  5. We also call on AG Campbell to prosecute federal agents, who are by law required to identify themselves, but refuse to by wearing masks and not showing badges; as well as potentially non-agent individuals serving as MAGA mercenaries while impersonating federal agents.
