Avaaz:

Mayor Baraka was arrested trying to personally check on an ICE detention site because he was concerned about the welfare of its detainees. He was released quickly but this was an American Mayor taken into custody by a team of masked federal agents wearing military fatigues for the crime of doing his job.

Mayor Baraka was arrested as a warning from the Trump Administration. We need to make sure this does not silence our elected representatives but emboldens them. Please add your name to this open letter to help send a wave of gratitude loud enough to encourage others to follow in Mayor Baraka’s footsteps.

Here’s to protecting America together in all the small and big ways we can dream up.

With hope and determination,

Nell and the whole Avaaz team
