Enough is Enough! Get ICE Out! Protest and Vigil
Aug

Enough is Enough! Get ICE Out! Protest and Vigil

Since January 2025 over 2,000 kidnappings have occurred in the 805 region that we know of. This count is going up daily. ICE has brutally kidnapped immigrants, quietly, quickly, and effectively, chasing people down streets, neighborhoods, and fields. 70% of deportees had no criminal conviction, implying the other 30% had convictions — many of which were nonviolent or minor.

Indivisible Santa Maria commends the brave and resilient volunteerism of fellow community organizations that are helping all those involved in the unlawful and racist kidnapping of our community members.

We are here to win, and will not be divided, we show up for each other!
