Join in community to learn the ways we are fighting to keep our communities safe and affordable in the face of ICE violence, the rising cost of living, and increases in harmful technology. Tap into the fight to protect working families and our neighbors!
We are in a moment of deep crisis, both across the country and here in Philadelphia. Our city has been in the crosshairs of President Trump’s administration’s threats since he took office. Our communities are facing the fear of losing access to healthcare and food assistance. ICE has become a de facto paramilitary force, operating with impunity in immigrant communities, and many fear ICE kidnapping our loved ones and neighbors. The tax burden is increasingly being put on the backs of working class Philadelphians and mom-and-pop shops while big corporations don’t pay their fair share. Big tech companies receive tax breaks, while also collaborating with ICE by giving away private data.
While federal attacks threaten our livelihoods, we continue to see a lack of investment locally in our basic needs – like fully funded public services, robust city immigrant resources, and safe affordable housing. We demand:
- ICE Out of Philly!
- Tax the rich, fund our communities!
- No money for harmful technology! No data center in our neighborhood!
We are proud to be Philadelphians. Philly is a city of everyday people who care for their families, work in their neighborhoods, and create the beautiful diverse communities that we will struggle to protect together. Now we need our city leadership to step up and protect Philadelphians with us.
We can’t wait to be together, share a meal, and build relationships to better fight for ourselves and our neighbors.
