do what is right.

Posted on by

a large and passionate crowd turned out in the cold last night 

speakers, chanters, singers, hot cider, flags, signs, hand warmers

even a counter-protester

before the city council met

some community members

spoke at the meeting

the Romulus city council

unanimously approved a resolution

against a planned ICE detention center

in which they outbid an auto supply company

to purchase a vacant building in the city

during the meeting

the mayor  said the city will not issue a permit or a certificate of occupancy

unless mandated by a federal judge to do so

next step is to take it to the state

power of the people.

  17. One of the things not being investigated is who will be running these detention centers…private prisons have become a booming industry in the Republican administrations, and the people making billions from the US government are all far-right – these centers are another cash grab from the American people.
