A joint statement from Texas Cattle Feeders Association, Kansas Livestock Association and Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association regarding the ongoing ICE operations in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas: “The Kansas Livestock Association, Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association and Texas Cattle Feeders Association are closely monitoring reported U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity affecting agricultural communities in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas. Our organizations respect the responsibility of federal agencies to enforce the law. At the same time, cattle producers, feedyards, dairies, livestock markets, processors, and other rural businesses depend on a stable workforce to care for animals, protect food safety, and keep the supply chains operating. Sudden workforce disruptions can create immediate animal-welfare, operational, and economic consequences that extend well beyond an individual business. These ICE operations are having a massive chilling effect on the legal, documented, skilled workers that put beef on the table and keep the cattle supply chain moving. Additionally, these types of disruptions will lead to higher beef prices for consumers. Reported impacts to our organizations throughout the past few days have been: - Thousands of fed cattle slated for shipping to processors now delayed, resulting in millions of dollars in lost revenue and additional costs. - Workforce disruptions at numerous supply chain chokepoints such as feedyards, dairies, processors, feed and grain companies, transportation hubs, and community services. These disruptions come at a time of enhanced focus and pressure on the cattle and beef supply chain. They are a costly and unnecessary impact to cattle producers already suffering from unwelcome political interference to both the markets as well as the physical supply chain. Frustratingly, the harm these actions cause to cattle producers last for days and weeks after such operations conclude. We urge federal officials to conduct enforcement actions in a lawful, orderly, and transparent manner; respect due process; and communicate clearly with affected employers and communities.”

Good news: a federal judge just paused Wilber's deportation. The government shouldn’t be allowed to shoot you from an unmarked vehicle and then cover it up by deporting you. Keep speaking out, it's working.

NEW: Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL), who has said she is a “proud anchor baby”, will hold a press conference in Chicago tomorrow morning to introduce legislation that would “dismantle DHS” & “abolish ICE”. Ramirez says her “Reimagining Safety Act” would “repeal the authorities that give DHS its power, and redirect all funds from DHS to programs that working families rely on,” as well as “create a new human- and community-centered federal department that promotes collective safety.”

We attended the RNC Attendees had one consistent demand: Mass deportations.

Today, in Austin, an ICE agent shot an injured a man while he was driving. He was detained and taken to a hospital. Now, neither his family nor his attorney know his whereabouts. This is just months after Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was murdered by ICE in Houston. There must be an exhaustive and independent investigation of today’s horrific incident. I am praying for Austin, my home away from home. I’m praying for the community living in fear of masked thugs and vigilantism. I’m praying for the family of the victim. And, every day, I pray that ICE’s reign of terror in Texas ends immediately.

How many more shootings by this department should Americans go through? Stop the shootings ICE. Unfortunately, one side will probably remain silent once again on this issue.

I can’t believe the nightmare that we are reliving day and day out. Another person shot in Texas by ICE. We demand fairness, justice, and accountability. But one thing is for sure— there is no “reforming” this “agency.” Abolish ICE. This has to stop.

Hope this helps. I am a lawyer. Being undocumented and having a final order of removal is not a death sentence. Civil immigration violations do not justify the use of deadly force.

Texas Rep. Greg Casar compares immigration enforcement to "war" and says the only way "for Austin to be safe" is to stop enforcing immigration law altogether.
