WA Immigrant Solidarity Network – December 27, 2024

Posted on December 27, 2024

[Español Abajo]

This is Israel Gonzalez, WAISN’s Rapid Response Organizer, and I want to thank you for attending our last General Meeting of the year! 

Our monthly General Meeting allows community members from across Washington to share their experiences, discuss strategies for empowering their own local communities, and give us an opportunity to involve directly affected people in our strategic decision-making processes. 

Just in case you missed it or if you had any questions, here is a brief summary of the most important points we discussed and ways you can get involved:

Deportation Defense Hotline

Save, share and use the WAISN Deportation Defense Hotline number—1-844-724-3737—to report immigration activity, detentions, raids; request accompaniment to vulnerable locations or help with the Fair Fight Bond Fund Application; and to get connected other immigration and community resources immigrants need to not just survive but to thrive.


Hotline Highlights

In October, we added 3 new members to the Hotline team. Thanks to our increased capacity, we are now able to answer or return all calls within 1 business day, usually less!

Most immigration raids and activity happen in the early morning, so starting in January, we are expanding our hours to: 6am to 6pm, Monday to Friday.  To report immigration activity or detentions outside these hours, send a text message or leave a voicemail on the Hotline number. We will return the call as soon as possible. We ALWAYS give priority to reports of ICE or CBP activity and detentions: this is why the Hotline was created.


In 2024, we talked to almost 800 community members from 29 out of Washington’s 39 counties. Our goal for 2025 is 1000 community members supported!


Immigrant Health Coverage

Washington is a leader in Immigrant Health Coverage. Since November 2023, everyone living in Washington—regardless of immigration status—can purchase health insurance through Washington Healthplanfinder. During Open Enrollment (November 1 to January 15), anyone can buy or change their insurance.

WAISN will continue to fight to expand Immigrant Health Coverage in 2025. Apply today to find out your options, demonstrate the need for more funds, and be in the loop about health coverage opportunities.


Need help? You can contact the WA Healthplanfinder Customer Support Center at 1-855-923-4633, get connected to a local navigator, or find an enrollment center close to you to get personalized support for you and your loved ones—and you can get in-language support in over 200 languages!

Rapid Response

In 2024, we:

  • Connected with 28 organizations throughout the state of Washington.
  • Visited more than 10 cities, including: Yakima, Spokane, Royal City, Mattawa, Walla Walla, Grays Harbor, Pacific County, Granger.
  • Trained 703 people to be a part of a rapid response team.
  • Created 8 Rapid Response teams in the counties of: Pacific, King, Chelan, Benton, Snohomish, Kitsap, Yakima, Skagit.

Attend a Know Your Rights with ICE virtual training! 

Do you know what to do if ICE comes to your home? Do you know what to do if ICE comes to your workplace? What does a judicial warrant look like? Can ICE enter your home? Come and learn that and more in this bi-lingual (Spanish and English) training. REGISTER HERE for our training on Wednesday, January 8, from 6pm–8pm.

Attend a virtual Rapid Response training and join a team! 

Rapid Response Teams are groups of trained individuals who are activated to document and provide support to affected families when activity, raids, or detentions by immigration agents are reported in their community. REGISTER HERE to learn more about how to get involved on Saturday, January 25 from 12pm–2pm.

Thank you for continuing to trust and work with WAISN! If you are interested in joining or creating a team in your communitDeportation Defensey, contact israel@waisn.org.

Le habla Israel González, Organizador de Respuesta Rápida de WAISN, y quiero agradecerle su asistencia a nuestra última Reunión General del año.

Nuestra Reunión General mensual ofrece el espacio para miembros de las comunidades inmigrantes de todo Washington en el cual, participantes pueden compartir experiencias, discutir estrategias para fortalecer las defensas contra la deportación y dar la oportunidad de involucrar a personas directamente impactadas en nuestro proceso de toma de decisiones estratégicas.

Por si no pudo asistir o si asistió y tiene alguna pregunta, aquí tiene un resumen de los puntos más importantes que se discutieron y las formas en las que puede participar:

Línea de Defensa contra la Deportación

Guarde, comparta y utilice el número de la Línea de Defensa contra la Deportación de WAISN – 1-844-724-3737 – para reportar actividades de inmigración, detenciones, redadas; solicitar acompañamiento a lugares que sean vulnerables o para obtener ayuda con la solicitud del Fondo de Fianza Lucha Justa; y para conectarse con otros recursos comunitarios que los inmigrantes necesitan no sólo para sobrevivir, sino para prosperar.

Lo más destacado de la Línea de Apoyo

En octubre se sumaron 3 personas al equipo de la Línea de Apoyo. Gracias al aumento de nuestra capacidad, ahora podemos responder o devolver todas las llamadas en un día laborable ¡o incluso en menos tiempo!

La mayoría de las redadas y actividades de inmigración ocurren temprano en la mañana, por lo que a partir de enero, vamos a expandir nuestro horario de 6am a 6pm, de lunes a viernes.  

Para reportar actividad de inmigración o detenciones fuera de este horario, envíe un mensaje de texto o deje un mensaje de voz al número de la Línea de Apoyo. Le devolveremos la llamada lo antes posible. SIEMPRE le damos prioridad a las notificaciones de actividades y detenciones de inmigración: para eso se creó la Línea de Apoyo.

En 2024, hablamos con casi 800 miembros de la comunidad de 29 condados de Washington. Nuestra meta para el 2025 es ¡1000 miembros de la comunidad apoyados!

Cobertura de salud para inmigrantes

El estado de Washington es líder en la cobertura de salud para inmigrantes. Desde noviembre de 2023, todas las personas que viven en Washington -independientemente de su estatus migratorio- pueden comprar un seguro médico a través de Washington Healthplanfinder. Durante la Inscripción Abierta (del 1 de noviembre al 15 de enero), cualquier persona puede comprar o cambiar su seguro.

WAISN seguirá luchando para expandir la Cobertura de Salud para Inmigrantes en 2025. Inscríbase hoy mismo para conocer sus opciones, para demostrar la necesidad de más fondos y para estar al tanto de las oportunidades de cobertura médica.


¿Necesita ayuda? Puede ponerse en contacto con el Centro de Atención al Cliente de WA Healthplanfinder llamando al 1-855-923-4633, ponerse en contacto con un orientador o buscar un centro de inscripción cercano para obtener ayuda personalizada para usted y sus seres queridos, ¡y puede obtener ayuda en más de 200 idiomas!

Former President Barack Obama recently posted on LinkedIn Abraham Lincoln's understanding of hard work and pulling up the bootstraps for independent success. Lincoln also understood we are not here alone. And we're not meant to solve the world's problems alone. A friend of mine from D.C. and smarter-than-most has taken note of not only these values, but the values of rural America - and what we're doing right here in Benton County. The goal is to accomplish the most in every possible way for the benefit of the majority of the people - and then some! Our political climate has dramatically derailed this goal by dividing our nation. However, we can always take back our flag - take back our values - take back our rural ways of life - and take back what it means to be a united front. Below is the original post by Barack Obama and the response from a loved friend who recognizes our "dirt road" lifestyle and our desire to build up our communities. We should all be proud to pull up our boot straps and then turn to those next to us and help them pull up their straps as well. Cheers to you all and I hope to see you next Thursday for our annual Normal and Shirly Miller Leadership Dinner - TOGETHER!MistyChair P.S. And for the love of America - #ProtectOurPublicLands ...
