We could not fight against NWDC without your support, and we want to thank you! If you donated through Venmo in 2025, please send us your email so we can thank you! #AbolishICE #AbolishGEOGROUP #ChingaLaMigra #ShutdownNWDC #FreeThemALL

american liberals are fine with millions of deportations as long as they happen quietly and the police don't hurt any white people. proud of it, really

Now more than ever is a time to join the ongoing fight that La Resistencia has been leading since 2014, because we know that no one is safe from ICE, they have come after us, now they are coming after you, and we need you more than ever to fight against detention and deportation of our communities.

In 2018 when our founder Maru Mora was targeted by ICE, she said "It's obviously clear that [ICE is] going after us right now. They will go after many others, not only undocumented, but documented and possibly even U.S. citizens."

Officer Chidume berates detained people with comments about family separation and mockingly tells people, including Kevin, that they wont ever see their children again. #AbolishICE #AbolishGEOGROUP #ChingaLaMigra #ShutdownNWDC #FreeThemALL

Kevin, 22 years old, and immigrants detained inside the Northwest Detention Center are experiencing psychological torture by GEO officers.

Sign Mario Bernadel’s petition to be free from ICE custody so Mario can reunite with his loved ones and continues to seek care away from detention conditions. actionnetwork.org/petitions/fr... #AbolishICE #AbolishGEOGROUP #ChingaLaMigra #ShutdownNWDC #FreeThemALL

Ongoing food malnourishment and medical neglect are causing Mario, along with many others, to lose the strength needed to continue fighting.

“Friends and family worry when you don’t reach out-they start to fear you died, but many don’t realize how expensive it's becoming to stay in touch or how complicated the immigration process really is.”

ICE and GEO are ignoring Rogelio’s pleas of not being cuffed. #AbolishICE #AbolishGEOGROUP #ChingaLaMigra #ShutdownNWDC #FreeThemALL

Rogelio feels immense pain in his feet. He can’t sleep and it hurts to walk. The pain is so bad that he rather refused to go to dialysis than being cuffed. He is scared that his feet will get infected and will have to have his feet removed.

Rogelio has diabetes and goes to dialysis three times a week. He has recently been forced to have his feet cuffed. Officer Miller is the one forcing Rogelio have his feet cuffed. Rogelio has a medical document stating that he is not to have his feet cuffed because of previous injuries to his feet.

While clear human rights violations have not stopped, neither has La Resistencia in our effort to observe proceedings, document abuses occurring and the number of people being shackled on these planes, and carry out vital watchdog work that the King County airport is not willing to tackle.

La Resistencia is the only organization in Washington state that has been fighting against ICE flights out of King County Airport. Since 2019, La Resistencia has been fighting against the deportation flights occurring out of King County Airport (KCA).

La Resistencia volunteers who observed the deportation flight informed us that 98 people boarded the plane to be transferred and/or deported.
