The impact of ICE raids on school attendance is undeniable. The removal of policies, like the sensitive locations policy, impacts children & families dealing with heightened fear of deportation, leading many immigrant parents to keep their children home.

Early childhood education is not a “public benefit”. It is a right. Access to food and healthcare are also fundamental needs for all children. As pediatricians, we are appalled at policies that restrict these basic needs for children in immigrant families. The chilling effect will be devastating.

As I’ve said before, in order to build a mass deportation operation to root out 4% of the population you must first build a police state.

A handful of states are considering taking away undocumented students' right to a free public education.

"no modern administration has insisted on this standard before, & the idea that foreigners who are here on valid visas should live under fear that their every political opinion might become grounds for sudden incarceration in Louisiana or El Salvador is inhumane and close to un-American in spirit."

ICE is using SEO tactics to make old government press releases pop up on the first page of Google results, giving years old raids a false air of recency.

Giving students many ‘red cards’ with info on how to deal with ICE has really helped our students, too. They feel like they are being proactive in helping their family and neighbors

The President plans to "implement the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, last used to justify internment camps for people of Japanese, German and Italian descent during World War Two. The move...could allow him to bypass due process rights and rapidly remove migrants."

Educators, ICE activities have ramped up around the US. What are you seeing and experiencing with your students and families? #EduSky

An Indiana bill (HB 1394) and action by Oklahoma's Board of Education are current attempts to restrict school enrollment based on immigration status...how long until a legal challenge leads to Plyler v. Doe being reconsidered by the Supreme Court?

Sharing an incredible resource for people looking to follow the legal changes on immigration under Trump. A law professor and numerous students at Yale Law and Stanford Law will be tracking and summarizing every change in immigration policy. immpolicytracking.org/home/

We got an encouraging email from Chicago Public Schools today, this helps clarify! ❤

This totally tracks with reports that some big "raid" is scheduled for Tuesday in Chicago. Why announce in advance? Creating an atmosphere of anxiety is a key goal.

Teachers: Erring on the side of caution, now is the time to ask your admin if they have a plan in place for students whose parents may get picked up by ICE while at work. If Trump follows through on his rhetoric, our students still need a safe place to go at the end of the day. #EduSky

Teachers: if you live in a sanctuary city or city led by immigrant-friendly government, you need to press your central admin for ICE protocols if ICE shows up at your school. Districts are underfunded, sometimes incompetent and sometimes uninterested in this work. If this is the case... #EduSky
