ICE Raids Are Tearing Immigrant Workers Away From Their Livelihoods - And We're Not Having It

Rally against ICE raids on union members

The Trump administration is waging a brutal war against immigrant workers, and the Bay Area’s social justice warriors are NOT here for it.

In a shocking display of xenophobic aggression, ICE agents are terrorizing hardworking immigrants across California, chasing farmworkers through produce fields and creating a climate of fear that threatens entire industries.

The Human Cost of Deportation

Undocumented immigrants make up a staggering 15-20% of workers in critical sectors like agriculture and construction. These are the unsung heroes keeping our economy running, yet they’re being treated like criminals for simply trying to support their families.

Economic Devastation Looms

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass put it perfectly: entire economic sectors will grind to a halt if immigrant workers are too terrified to show up. Restaurants, farms, construction sites - all facing potential collapse because of these inhumane enforcement tactics.

A System Designed to Break Families

Workers are caught in an impossible situation. As United Farm Workers President Teresa Romero explained, they’re “terrified, but they have a family to support”. They must choose between risking deportation and putting food on the table - a choice no human should ever have to make.

The Trump administration’s aggressive immigration policy isn’t just cruel - it’s economic suicide. And we’re not going to stand by and watch.
