Join us outside of the federal courthouse to tell DHS: ICE Out of Gilroy and ICE Out of Everywhere!

This Tuesday there is a critical court hearing re: ICE facility in Gilroy. Santa Clara County and state leaders are gearing up for legal battle to block a planned ICE facility in South County. California Attorney General Rob Bonta and county officials filed a lawsuit arguing that the federal government has illegally bypassed environmental laws, local zoning rules and other statutes in advancing the a project for an ICE facility just east of Gilroy. A hearing to consider plaintiff’s preliminary injunction seeking an immediate halt to construction work is set for Sept. 8 at San Jose’s federal courthouse.

The ICE Out of Gilroy coalition is holding a public press conference and rally outside of the courthouse on the day of the hearing. Join us to call for a stop to ICE expansion in our area, and everywhere!

Here is background on the lawsuit that our state and county officials are brining against the federal administration in San Jose on September 8::
