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!

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.

Gov. Ferguson, WA leaders slam Trump's new travel bans, call them ‘hate repackaged'Story by Simone Carter, The News TribuneAfter putting a stop to President Donald Trump's original 2017 travel ban, then-Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson received thousands of letters expressing thanks.He replied to some handwritten notes, including one by a young girl from an affected country that read, "Because you stood up, I can be here." Ferguson's daughter tacked on a doodle - he thinks it was a butterfly - and the two children later met up for a play date.Ferguson, now Washington's governor, recounted that story at a Tuesday news conference. In a groundhog-day moment. He joined other state officials and community leaders to decry the latest travel bans issued last week by Trump."It always struck me, the idea that two 7- or 8-year-old kids can fully understand things in a way that our president cannot," he said June 10 at the Sea-Tac Office Complex. "And I'm not sure what to say as an American about that, other than I do think that play date represents what we all care about: Diversity makes us better."The current travel-ban iteration took effect Monday and prohibits foreign nationals from 12 countries - including Afghanistan, Iran, Yemen and Sudan - from entering the United States. Partial restrictions also apply to people from seven other countries, including Cuba and Venezuela.In arguing for the ban, the President pointed to the recent Colorado firebombing attack allegedly committed by an Egyptian national against pro-Israel demonstrators. Travel restrictions during his first term were key to preventing terrorism on American soil, he said in a video posted last week to Truth Social.Trump travel ban takes effect drawing concernWhite House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said in an emailed statement that everything Trump does is in the best interest of Americans and their safety."His commonsense, country-specific travel restrictions include places that lack proper vetting, exhibit high visa overstay rates, or fail to share identity and threat information," Jackson said. "The restrictions fulfill the President's day-one promise to protect American citizens from dangerous foreign actors who may come to the United States and cause us harm."But Trump's latest travel bans have generated pushback from immigrant advocacy groups, world leaders and Democrats, who've blasted it as racist, xenophobic and discriminatory.Ferguson hinted Tuesday at feeling a sense of deja vu."While it does seem difficult to believe we are back here again, one thing has not changed," Ferguson said. "That is Washington will not just stand up to what's going on. We will lead on this issue, just like we have in the past."Still, questions remain as to what actions the state will - or can - take this time around.Attorney General Nick Brown highlighted his predecessor's efforts to fight the previous so-called Muslim travel ban, noting that Washington was the first state to do so.Brown said his office, which has so far filed 21 cases against the Trump administration, is actively looking into how it can challenge the president's updated version: "But it will be difficult." He cited the conservative makeup of the U.S. Supreme Court as a possible barrier.Trump also recently deployed U.S. Marines and National Guard troops to Los Angeles to stamp out protests against his administration's immigration policies. Brown said that escalation, coupled with the ban, shows that "what we are seeing from the President of the United States of America is creeping authoritarianism.""We're seeing efforts to erase history, to silence powerful voices against him, and we're seeing time and time again a disregard for the law," Brown said. "These are all characteristics of a fascist government, and we need to use not only our legal tools, but use our collective voices to reaffirm the moral righteousness of this country."State Rep. Darya Farivar was the first Middle Eastern woman elected to the Washington state Legislature. The Seattle Democrat said Tuesday that her family fled Iran in search of a better life: "I am living proof of that hope - and yet here we are again.""This travel ban is not new. It is hate repackaged. It is fear recycled, and it is xenophobia dressed as policy," she said. "We reject it." ... See MoreSee Less

Why I'm going to a 'No Kings' rally against Trump, and you should tooOpinion by Anne Lamott, special to the LA Times Usually when people announce, “Here’s the thing,” I want to ask, really? Did God stop by today with cheese Danish for the both of you, to tell you what the thing was?But here’s the thing: We’re going to need you this Saturday.What is happening in Los Angeles with the National Guard is not simply President Trump’s brainstorm to move past the Musk scandal. It is the next step in his tryouts for autocracy.On Saturday, Trump celebrates his birthday in Washington with a gigantic military parade, at an estimated cost of $45 million. He is a fun-loving guy. It’s “The Music Man” meets the National Day parade in Pyongyang.So, we need you to consider showing up at one of the “No Kings” protest rallies that are also being held Saturday all across America. I will be attending one, because it’s important and because it will do my hopeless heart good. It could do the same for you — lift you, remind you of who you are. You show up, we give you hope. It’s a great offer: When my grandson was little, and wanted something from me, he would put both hands on his hips, present a trade, glare fiercely, and say, “Deal?” So, deal?We the people make the best placards — my favorites from the “Hands Off” march were “Honk if you never drunk-texted war plans” and “Now you’ve pissed off the grandmothers.” There will be the old songs of the civil rights movement and the protests that stopped the Vietnam War. It’s friendliness, right action and food trucks. Heaven.Saturday is one week before the summer solstice, and this is how I am going to celebrate the last week of spring. I don’t approve of summer, all those mosquitoes and crop tops. If I were God, I would have skipped over it. But spring gives us green, growing, new life. Frogs start to sing again in the rains. They’ve been waiting, and all of a sudden they’re saying, I'm here, hydrated, and I'm going to tell you about it. Spring is new voices.Winter came with MAGA. The next season will be about new leaders and orators who will emerge in this weekend’s rallies. We’ll be the frogs of springing.People who say something can’t be done should get out of the way of the rest of us who are trying to do it.I will celebrate the last week of spring with tens of thousands of people at the San Francisco Civic Center. Just ordinary citizens with a moral compass, we won’t have a plan or strategy to save this hurting nation, but we will show up heartsick, angry, peaceful and exuberant, the young and old, babies, the Gens X, Y and Z, people of every ethnicity, spiritual path and none at all. The love we have for this beautiful, beleaguered democratic nation will be our little light to see by, and shine.Once a small group of people from my church, mostly old, were at a weekend retreat in the redwoods. At the end of an evening, it began to pour buckets of rain. They had to get back to their cabins in the darkness. They were OK until the lights of the retreat house faded; they were in the pitch dark. A narrow, precarious bridge separated them from their cabins, and they were afraid to cross it blind. But the youngest old man had a keychain with a tiny flashlight on it that gave off a thin beam of light, and so, holding on to each other's shoulders and waists, guided by the thin beam of the penlight, they crossed the bridge.I wish all the people who will meet in my city could cry together for what has been destroyed and besmirched, all the people dying since Musk got USAID dismantled. But we liberals mostly don’t cry: We fret, like little children. At least, I do.When infants discover those tiny fingers of theirs, they jiggle the fingertips of one hand against the other and look exactly as if they are knitting. This is exactly what we will be doing on Saturday: knitting a peaceful resistance to dictatorship, to the politics of cruelty.Remember the old bumper sticker that said, “Democracy is a verb”?One of the old women in the dark downpour at that retreat 40 years ago was Mary Williams. I was still drinking when we first met. She adored me despite my being a walking personality disorder. Her son was in prison, her health precarious, and she was poor, but when she was sad, she always told me, no matter how dark her life, “Annie, I know my change is gonna come.” And it would.I lived on a tiny houseboat and had almost no money; Mary lived in the projects. She would bring me little baggies full of dimes, sealed with twist ties. I got sober, and then had a baby, without a husband or a steady income. But whenever life felt too hard, I’d see or remember Mary at the altar, sharing her hardships and pain, announcing, “But I know my change is gonna come.” It always did: a second wind, a visit from an old friend.When my baby was 3, a book of mine took off unexpectedly, and I explained to Mary that we were doing better now. But she still brought me those baggies. She knew I didn’t need the money, but that I needed the dimes.I am looking at one of those bags on my bookshelf now — I’ve saved it all these years — and man, do I need the dimes more than ever — faith, love, hope; good people. Our change is gonna come, maybe not next Thursday right after lunch, but it will, if we stick together, don’t give up, and keep taking the next right action. Remembering this will be the gift of Saturday’s protest march. So, here’s the thing: You who are terrified, sad, exhausted and just plain gobsmacked? Maybe show up on Saturday. Come democracy with us. ... See MoreSee Less

    NO KINGS Tri-Cities WA

    June 14, 2025  11:00 AM - 1:00 PM
    1321 N Columbia Center Blvd We will be on the sidewalk in front of the mall Kennewick, WA

    In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire allies.

    🚨On Saturday, June 14, we’re taking to the streets nationwide. We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind.🚨

    The flag doesn’t belong to Donald Trump. It belongs to us. We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it.

    On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Check out nokings.org for more information.

    A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
