Stand up to "Secure Communities"
Join local and national leaders for a press conference to kick-off a
week of action against the failed "Secure Communities" program and to
demand that DC Police Chief Kathy Lanier terminate DC's participation in
this program that would automatically forward to ICE the fingerprints of
everyone arrested in DC.
