SUMMARY:Love Melts ICE (Newport)
DESCRIPTION:Cathie will be a featured speaker at the Love Melts ICE rally in front of Newport City on Saturday\, April 18. \nThis event is organized by Indivisible Newport. \n\nJoin coastal Indivisible groups for LOVE MELTS ICE Rally & Fundraiser on Saturday\, April 18th\, 3 – 6 p.m. in Newport\, OR. It is a rally protesting DHS expansion & illegal ICE actions that are already affecting the entire Oregon coast. Rally will take place on N. Hwy 101 in front of Newport City Hall. \nDHS is stepping up its efforts around the country to establish permanent human storage sites and the fight against an ICE detention facility in Newport isn’t over. Newport Mayor Jan Kaplan points out that DHS only said it wouldn’t plan anything until after May 1st – we don’t know what happens after that. Even if DHS had promised Newport they wouldn’t build\, it can’t be trusted. Meanwhile\, there is word that they want to set up a facility in Roseburg. \nLOVE MELTS ICE is also a music fundraiser to benefit three Lincoln County organizations: Centro de Ayuda\, Conéxion Fénix\, and Arcoíris Cultural. Each group works for individuals and families most at risk of being impacted by ICE’s illegal actions. They help those who face risk to simply send kids to school\, pick up groceries\, or go to work. Because ICE still wants to establish a detention facility on the Oregon coast\, neighbors no longer feel safe. These groups offer education\, family support\, healthcare\, and other support services. \nLocal musicians will play on the lawn in front of Newport City Hall over a period of three hours. Donations from rally-goers will be split evenly between the three organizations. \nWe must protest the way ICE is hurting our communities. Through our donations\, we can help. \nLOVE MELTS ICE is hosted by the Oregon Coast Indivisible Alliance; OCIA is comprised of 14 groups stretching from Astoria to Brookings. We hosted a similar protest in December – ICE HAS NO BUSINESS HERE – that drew over 800 people from all over Oregon. Given that it is Spring\, we expect the more will show up this time. \nA core principle behind all Indivisible & ICE Out For Good events is a commitment to nonviolent action and no civil disobedience. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values\, and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind\, including those legally permitted\, should not be brought to events.
