Resist the Shadow Surge
- Over 100,000 of our immigrant neighbors received orders of removal in June of 2026 – the highest number ever – as the Trump government continues a nation-wide “shadow” surge of mass deportation.
- Local law enforcement agencies and county jails have become increasingly critical arms of the mass deportation machine, detaining our neighbors and voluntarily honoring statutorily optional ICE hold requests.
- TCDSA is fighting the shadow surge by organizing daily court watch at the Whipple building. Get involved and fight back.
