HELP STOP RAIDS ON IMMIGRANT WORKERS
Every week in nearby places like Albion, Batavia, Sotus, farmworkers are being picked up by I.C.E., the border patrol or local police. They are jailed and deported, often breaking up families and social and religious communities. Their crime is coming here to harvest for us the food we eat, and trying to support their families.
