Join us for our February Happy Hour this Thursday, February 26th at Pegasus City Brewery in downtown Dallas! actionnetwork.org/events/febru...

Trump and this administration is making the grotesque argument that deportations are worthwhile because they are driving down housing costs. Putting aside the fact that there is no real data to support this idea, it's a cynical attempt to create division through the idea of scarcity.

This potential "detention facility" at a warehouse in Hutchins is an abomination: www.dmagazine.com/frontburner/....
