For months now, labor and community groups have been showing up every Thursday at the Federal Courthouse in San Diego to protest the harm caused by ongoing Federal immigration enforcement in San Diego, as ICE agents stalk our school parking lots and detain families showing up for immigration appointments. On February 5, SDEA and other community partners in the Education Justice Coalition of San Diego are taking lead at the weekly protest, to highlight how students, educators, and school communities are impacted, and how educators and school leaders can respond.
Join us:

Other ways to take action:
Though some educators have used personal leave to attend or speak, most SDEA members are in their classrooms on Thursday mornings! If you can’t join in person, here are other actions you can take today:
- 🗣️ Spread the word in your networks, especially to folks who can show up on a Thursday morning!
- 📝 Sign this NEA petition to add your voice to union educators across the country demanding that schools be made off limits to ICE
- 📱Use this ACLU tool to call your senator and demand an end to these reckless immigration raids, and oppose any bill that would add to ICE’s already massive budget.
