For the past two and a half years we have been pushing for an end to S-Comm and this is the first hearing in Alameda County where the Board of Supervisors will hear directly from our communities about the devastating impacts of local police collaboration with ICE.

Increased federal immigration enforcement has resulted in a record number of deportations nationally and results in the separation of families, including here in Alameda County.

In Alameda County approximately 2000 immigrants have been deported and many more individuals have been turned over to federal authorities by the County and are facing deportation.

Community members with advocates and organizers will testify on the devastating impacts of detention & deportation and urge Alameda County to adopt a new policy that ends the enforcement of ICE holds.

In 2011, there was an unprecedented number of deportations, 400,000, more than any year before. California has had over 82,531 deportations as a result of S-Comm, more than any other state.

We want this hearing to be filled with everyone in the community who opposes the separation of families and believes that enforcing immigration is not the job of local police. 

Join us in telling them—Our families belong together!
