Thanks for sharing, Jason! The rally actually begins at 4pm. This is the
Facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/1496506233748685/.
You can read the updated press release
<http://migrantjustice.net/news/updated-press-release-on-recent-ice-detentions>
from Migrant Justice for recent news about the situation.
And, here is a list of other things you can do to support Alex, Enrique,
and Zully:
(Please note number 4. You may remember that Enrique came to speak at UCM
last year. It would be worth writing a letter of support talking about that
experience.)
1. For those in Vermont, *come to a rally*! There will be two rallies on
Tuesday, in *Montpelier on the State House steps at 4pm
<http://migrantjustice.net/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=6081&qid=500505>*,
and in *Brattleboro at Pliny Park at 5pm
<http://migrantjustice.net/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=6081&qid=500505>.*
2. If you haven’t already signed the *petitions*, please do so now for
Alex
<http://migrantjustice.net/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=6082&qid=500505>
and Kike & Zully
<http://migrantjustice.net/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=6083&qid=500505>,
then share these petitions with your friends and on social media.
3. *Make calls* to Vermont ICE director Jeff Curtis at 802-527-3801
<(802)%20527-3801> and 802-309-1206 <(802)%20309-1206> and the Boston
Field office at 781-359-7500 <(781)%20359-7500> to demand the immediate
release of Jose Enrique Balcazar Sanchez (DOB 3/9/93), Zully Victoria
Palacios Rodriguez (DOB 5/14/93) and Alex Carrillo (DOB 9/26/93), and for
ICE to drop their deportation cases.
4. If you personally know Kike, Zully, or Alex, *write a letter of
support* to the Immigration Judge. Read these instructions for more
information
<http://migrantjustice.net/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=6084&qid=500505>
.
5. *Donate to Migrant Justice
<http://migrantjustice.net/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=6085&qid=500505>!*
These
arrests are a direct attack on the ability of Vermont’s immigrant
farmworkers to organize for rights and dignity. Migrant Justice is
committed to moving the struggle forward, and indeed, this is what our
detained leaders expect of us.
*We are undeterred in continuing our Northeast Speaking Tour for the Milk
with Dignity campaign
<http://migrantjustice.net/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=6086&qid=500505>,
calling on Ben & Jerry’s to follow through on its 2015 commitment to stand
up for the human rights of farmworkers in its dairy supply chain! *
