> Rocío Sáenz, SEIU Secretary-Treasurer. “Lewelyn’s arrest was wrong and it’s part of a clear Trump administration agenda to vilify immigrant workers who contribute to our communities, just so they can score political points. We’re proud to welcome Lewelyn home today, and our fight continues until no immigrant worker lives in fear of being ripped away from their family or community.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1990, #LAPD terrorists assaulted a peaceful #strike by the #JanitorsForJustice movement in #SEIU. The #BattleOfCenturyCity injuries were brutal, including a forced miscarriage, but the #union persisted and won concessions.

"The National Guard and Marines should not be used to suppress peaceful protests. Trump's lies are not a valid reason to deploy the military against our own people.
We will not be intimidated by the military might being used against us.

This afternoon's rally in Pittsburgh calling to free David Huerta -- and kick out ICE in general!
There were various speakers from organizations including the SEIU, Casa San José, 50501, and also City Councilor Barb Warwick, and Mayor Ed Gainey.
In response to the militarization of LA immigrant and #Chicano communities by #ICE, SVIC will be joining others for an emergency protest June 9th at 4:30 pm. We demand ICE leave our communities alone! We demand that Matt Mahan join the call to release #SEIU labor leader #DavidHuerta !!

Several days ago, the ICE Gestapo illegally arrested David Huerto, President of SEIU, in a raid in Los Angeles. He is still in prison, for doing nothing wrong.
It's an attack on immigrants.
An attack on the working class, on unions.
No one is Free Unless We ALL are Free.
Protests today at noon to force his release
