LD17’s ICE Forum - Know Your Rights

Written By Gretchen Winters

On February 25, LD17 hosted a panel forum on what we as citizens can do about ICE operations and protests in Tucson. It was a very well-attended event and covered a lot of topics. Our panel consisted of Erica Connell, founder and state liaison for 50-50-1 Arizona Coalition; Mo Goldman, immigration attorney; Rex Scott, Pima County Board of Supervisors; Kristin Downing and Rolande Baker, PrICE (Pima Resists ICE) and Tucson Community Rapid Response.

Here are links to various documents and websites which were discussed during the meeting:
