WA Immigrant Solidarity Network – October 2, 2025

Posted on October 2, 2025

[Español Abajo]

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

Call or text the Hotline 6am to 6pm, Monday to Friday to learn more about the rights that protect all Washingtonians, get support for detained persons, report immigration activity, request accompaniment to vulnerable locations, and to get connected with over 1400 immigration and community resources. Our Hotline organizers speak English and Spanish, and we offer interpretation in nearly 300 languages.

This month we highlight a key immigration enforcement trend: traffic stops.

In July and August, 1/3 of detentions involved traffic stops. Here are some trends we’ve noticed in these stops:

  • Many occur in the early hours of the morning (5am-9am) as people are heading to work.
  • They can happen on the road or when stopping for gas or food at places like gas stations.
  • Cars of those detained during a traffic stop are often left on the side of the road, leaving family or friends to pick them up.
  • Monitoring these vehicles could potentially be a detention strategy as people have also been detained when picking up vehicles.

We invite you to consider these questions:

  • What are some effective and creative ways you can share this information with your community: what mediums and spaces?
  • How are you seeing people adapt to this knowledge?

To keep up to date on immigration enforcement activity, follow us on social media, where we share regular updates about the activity reported through the Hotline and verified by our Rapid Response Teams.

In solidarity,

Israel Gonzalez

P.S. If you witness immigration activity, raids, and detentions in Washington, please call or text the WAISN Deportation Defense Hotline at 1-844-724-3737. We have organizers available Monday through Friday from 6am to 6pm to take your call. Our team speaks Spanish and English, and we have interpretation available in nearly 300 languages.


[ENGLISH ABOVE]

Habla Israel González, Organizador de Respuesta Rápida de WAISN, y quiero agradecerle su asistencia a nuestra Reunión General de este mes. Nuestra Reunión General mensual permite a los miembros de la comunidad de todo Washington compartir sus experiencias, discutir estrategias para empoderar a sus comunidades locales, y nos da la oportunidad de involucrar a las personas directamente impactadas en nuestros procesos de toma de decisiones estratégicas. 

Por si no pudo asistir o si tiene alguna pregunta, aquí tiene un breve resumen de los puntos más importantes que discutimos y formas en las que puede involucrarse:


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.


Llame a la Línea de Apoyo de 6 am a 6 pm, de lunes a viernes, para obtener más información sobre los derechos que protegen a todos los residentes de Washington, obtener apoyo para las personas detenidas, reportar actividades de inmigración, solicitar acompañamiento a lugares vulnerables y para conectarse con más de 1400 recursos comunitarios y de inmigración. Nuestros organizadores de la Línea de Apoyo hablan inglés y español, y contamos con servicios de interpretación en casi 300 idiomas.

Este mes destacamos un patron clave en la aplicación de las leyes de inmigración: las paradas de tráfico.

En julio y agosto, un tercio de las detenciones fueron paradas de tráfico. Estas son algunos de los patrones que hemos observado en estas paradas:

  • Muchos ocurren temprano en la mañana (entre 5 a 9 am), cuando las personas van al trabajo.
  • Pueden pasar en la carretera o cuando se detienen para echar gasolina o comprar comida en lugares como gasolineras.
  • Los autos de las personas detenidas durante una parada de tráfico suelen quedarse abandonados en la carretera, y son sus familiares o amigos quienes deben recogerlos.
  • La vigilancia de estos vehículos podría ser una estrategia de detención, ya que también se ha detenido a personas cuando iban a recogerlos.

Le invitamos a reflexionar sobre estas preguntas:

  • ¿De qué maneras efectivas y creativas puedes compartir esta información con tu comunidad: qué medios y espacios?
  • ¿ Cómo ves que se adaptan las personas a este conocimiento?

Para mantenerse al día sobre las actividades de inmigración, síganos en las redes sociales, donde compartimos actualizaciones periódicas sobre las actividades reportadas a través de la Línea de Apoyo y verificadas por nuestros equipos de Respuesta Rápida.

Let’s talk about School Boards. ❗Kennewick, Prosser, and Richland pay attention ❗School boards make important decisions about public schools. They hold significant power over children's rights, setting policies that determine curricula, extracurricular programs, student discipline, and how district funds are spent. Kennewick, Prosser, and Richland have some big decisions to make in this election. We’ve outlined some quick points on each candidate to help with your research but remember to read your Voters’ Pamphlet and to research each candidate (some of them have campaign websites that make their goals loud and clear). And don’t forget to VOTE! Even if you don’t have children your vote could help your neighbors, family members, or the kids who sell lemonade down the street every summer. Remember, the policies and decisions made by school boards can have long-lasting effects on your community and its future generations. ... See MoreSee Less

Richland Voters! If you were unaware, Donald Landsman passed away on August 31, 2025. First and foremost, we’d like to send our deepest condolences to the entire Landsman family and we are keeping them in our thoughts during this difficult time.Regarding the upcoming election, you might be wondering what will happen if Donald Landsman wins the Richland City Council Position 4 seat.Under Washington law, Landsman is on the ballot because he won the primary election (on August 5, 2025) and his campaign is active. If he wins the general election, his seat will remain vacant until the Richland City Council appoints a successor. The position will then appear on the 2026 ballot, allowing voters to elect a candidate to complete the remainder of the four-year term.In short, if you vote for Landsman you are not actually voting for him, you are voting for the Richland City Council to pick a temporary successor. If you aren’t comfortable with that then let’s take a closer look at the other candidate running for the Richland City Council Position 4 seat: John Maier.As a young adult, John Maier is motivated to change Richland city codes to facilitate more affordable housing, to represent Richland’s needs with Ben Franklin Transit for longer service hours and more capacity for school trips, and to motivate others, especially young people, to engage in government. Learn more about him in your Voters’ Pamphlet.Do your research, know your candidates, and VOTE! ... See MoreSee Less

    **In Zillah, we don’t put up with would-be kings. Come out and let your neighbors know they aren’t alone.

    Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.

    The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.

    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 and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

    Across Benton and Franklin Counties, the need is growing—but the resources aren’t. Government agencies and nonprofit organizations work tirelessly to provide shelter, food, addiction recovery, and mental health support. Yet even their combined efforts fall short of meeting the full scope of the crisis.

    So, what happens when the system can’t reach everyone? What do we do when the need shows up not in a spreadsheet, but on the corner holding a cardboard sign? We'll consider that question and more at our WEDNESDAY, October 22 Forum.
