🚨URGENT COURT SUPPORT - TUES SEPT 16 at 7AM.

Sign up: Blanca Action RSVP and Follow-Up - Airtable

The community showed up for Blanca in Burlington in August. Now, one month later,Blanca is being ordered to return to Burlington ICE headquarters where again she faces the risk of being detained on the spot or being given a 2-week notice to self deport.

Blanca’s situation is especially acute because she is a survivor of childhood polio living with physical disabilities and mobility issues. Countless detainees describe being denied the medicines and medical care they rely on daily while in detention. Her potential detention or deportation would not only mean being ripped from family and community but probable physical suffering or even death without medical treatment.

Blanca’s case is one of thousands of immigrants in Massachusetts alone who have been detained by ICE or are at risk of being detained in just the last few months. Her check-in comes right in the middle of another “surge” where masked and violent ICE agents flood our state to carry out mass arrests in heightened numbers. This kind of federal action does not make our streets safer, but rather terrorizes us all. We need resources for what actually makes us all safe - housing, education, and good jobs.

💪🏽 WHAT: Accompaniment and gathering at ICE Headquarters
📍WHERE: ICE Field Office at 1000 District Avenue, Burlington, MA 01803
⏰WHEN: Tuesday, September 16th 7 am
❤️ WHY: Immigrant justice and community organizations in the North Shore and across Massachusetts are rising up against the Trump administration’s attacks on our people and in solidarity with our community member, Blanca, to demand a stay of deportation.
