Wednesday, October 22 - Support Know Your Rights Efforts / What’s the Plan? Weekly Discussion Thurs / IL CD-7 Candidate Forum 11/3
Parter Action: Support Know Your Rights Efforts
In recent weeks, we have seen Federal ICE agents sweeping through neighborhoods across the Chicagoland area, kidnapping people off the street and detaining folks - including children - first and asking questions later. Now the Trump regime has moved to deploy the National Guard in Illinois, authorizing federal troops in another overreach to create chaos and fear.
These anti-democratic acts continue to escalate and there is no end in sight. It is frustratingly difficult to fight back against ICE. They are relentless and ruthless.
👉 But here are some actions you can take now to help.
Join a Know Your Rights training through the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights or The Resurrection Project.

Share the ICIRR 24-hour hotline number (also called the Family Support Network or FSN hotline) and call it to report ICE activity that you witness: 855-435-7693 Be sure to report information according to S.A.L.U.T.E.
Indivisible Action: What’s the Plan? A Weekly Discussion with Indivisible’s Co-Founders Thursday
The onslaught of news, the chaos coming out of the White House – it’s all meant to overwhelm us. It’s a deliberate strategy to sow confusion and make us believe we are powerless to fight back.
The antidote: Coming together in community to process what’s happening, to sift through what’s important and what’s just noise, and coalesce around strategies for fighting back.
Join Indivisible co-founders Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin each week, as we carve out an hour to discuss what’s happening and – more importantly – what’s the plan.
👉 Join the weekly call Thursdays at 2 p.m. CT.
