Restoring Trust Campaign

The Restoring Trust campaign urges local officials to not be accomplices to detention and deportation. Specifically we ask them to not comply with voluntary requests from ICE to hold and turn over people for deportation. A growing number of cities have enacted these progressive policies,including Washington DC, Santa Clara, CA, and Cook County, Illinois and more.

Together we’re forging an alternative to the Arizonification of our country.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the national week of action July 9-13th! Over 14 cities working to pass ordinances and policies to restore trust in our communities.

Support the California TRUST Act!

The California state legislature has passed the TRUST act–a bill that will protect thousands of families against the threat of deportation. We need your help to get CA Gov. Jerry Brown to sign this legislation!

Please support the passage of the CA TRUST Act by sending an “organizational support letter” LINK
