Power to the People News
Today, instead of our usual headlines, we want to draw your attention to an important nationwide action happening this weekend: ICE Out for Good.
At People Power United, we support safe and orderly borders that respect the dignity and humanity of those who live here and those seeking asylum. What’s broken is not the immigrant who has lived and worked in this country for 5, 10, or even 30 years—raising families, contributing to their communities, following the rules, filing paperwork, attending check-ins, and waiting year after year for a system that never delivers. What’s broken is a government that has failed to fix an immigration system riddled with delays, shifting rules, a shortage of judges, no legal help, and rampant abuse.
While Congress stalls, immigrants wait decades. Lawyers exploit desperate clients. Private detention companies profit from human suffering. And ICE raids homes in the middle of the night—stripping people of dignity, using force and fear, and deporting them to countries they may not know. Blaming immigrants for this chaos is wrong. The responsibility lies with a government that has ignored Dreamers, asylum seekers, and immigrants, underfunded the courts, allowed profiteering, and weaponized surveillance against the very people who call America home.
That’s why actions like ICE Out for Good matter—and why we must keep showing up for justice, accountability, and humanity.
People Power United is a proud member of the Not Above the Law coalition which is calling for a coordinated ICE Out For Good Weekend of Action on Saturday, January 10th, and Sunday, January 11th, to demand accountability, honor the life lost, and make visible the human cost of ICE’s actions.

▶️ We are outraged by the killing of Renee Nicole Good by ICE. She was a 37 year old wife and mother of three children who loved to sing and studied creative writing and she was shot in the face by an ICE agent. We grieve her death and the deaths of all those killed in ICE detention.
▶️ ICE has been escalating its cruel deployments into our communities. This recent killing is not an isolated incident, but the devastating and predictable result of ICE’s lawless operations and President Trump’s abuse of power.
▶️ ICE and CBP have endangered our communities. Our neighbors fear for their livelihoods and their lives, and our communities are less safe. We won’t stand for it.
▶️ We demand accountability for the killing and an end to ICE and CBP raids. We will not sit by while violence goes unanswered and our communities are terrorized.
We will meet ICE’s violence with steadfast nonviolence and lawful protest.
