Uncovering the real agenda of Immigration Reform and tools to
FIGHT BACK!
Attend this workshop to see how their partnership is impacting
YOUR SAFETY!
Join us in taking a closer look and demystifying the different areas of Immigration Reform!
Specifically, we're going to learn about the Secure Communities program. Secure Communities is a program that allows state and local police to check the fingerprints of an individual they are booking into a jail against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) immigration databases. If there is a “hit” in an immigration database, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is automatically notified, even if the person has not been convicted of any criminal act.
Communities have the option to opt out of the program! Is your community secure?
