Hello Indivisibles,

Did you know that your tax dollars or your pension money might be funding Trump’s gestapo? Pennsylvania is home to the largest ICE detention center, Geo Group’s Moshannon Valley Processing Center, and we need you to take them down.

This past weekend, a collaboration of many community organizations visited Moshannon in protest to prepare for our big day of action on 8/24. Check out this article that covered the day. 

📌What is the Geo Group?📌

• For these reasons, we are partnering with organizations state-wide to mobilize for a very important action on Sunday, 8/24. Please check your email for details!

• Montco Community Watch: If you have information about ICE detentions, please call 267-279-9205. You can also fill out this form (not for urgent reporting).
