A year after being injured and detained for simply documenting ICE during a raid, the charges against my friend and constituent, David Huerta, have finally been dropped.
The Trump administration might not like it, but in America we have a First Amendment right to document government actions and speak out against attacks on our communities. I continue to stand with David and SEIU against the Trump administration’s abuses. No amount of intimidation or fear will silence us.
14 months after being tackled and pepper sprayed for observing an ICE raid, David Huerta is vindicated.
This attempt to weaponize the justice system against anyone who dares to defend immigrant workers collapsed because the truth, and the videos, don't lie.
To every worker, every immigrant, everyone who’s ever been targeted: now is the time to keep organizing.
