In a critical moment on June 9, Genie Kastrup, president of Service Employees Local 1, rallied in Chicago against the silencing of voices and the division of working people by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This nationwide battle to protect workers and communities signals a growing threat to American freedoms and values.
UNIONS DEFEND AMERICAN FREEDOM
Union members nationwide mobilize to safeguard workers against an emboldened Trump administration targeting labor leaders and workers, like SEIU's David Huerta. From emergency rallies to workplace organizing, unions stand as guardians of American rights against federal overreach.
AMERICA RESPONDS TO ICE THREATS
ICE's aggressive tactics, including detaining labor leaders like Huerta, spark outrage and prompt nationwide protests. The assault on workers, both union and non-union, underscores the administration's attempt to weaken American labor power and intimidate hardworking Americans.
DEFENDING AMERICAN VALUES
As ICE targets workers, unions like SEIU defend against workplace raids and stand up for immigrant rights. The Trump administration's crackdown aims to instill fear and weaken labor's influence, but American workers fight back to protect their freedoms and livelihoods.
AMERICA'S FUTURE AGAINST ICE
Looking ahead, the fight to defend immigrant workers and American values intensifies. Unions lead the charge to protect workers' rights and ensure a future where all Americans, regardless of background, can work and thrive without fear of unjust targeting.
