WA Immigrant Solidarity Network – October 30, 2025

Posted on October 30, 2025

[Español Abajo]

We want to thank you for attending our General Meeting this 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:


Policy and Advocacy

JOIN US for our next Community Advocacy Meeting. We know the path of organizing for immigrant justice is a struggle. Let’s continue creating places of belonging and advocacy for a truly inclusive state for all Washingtonians, regardless of immigrant status.

What: Community Advocacy Meeting
When: Tuesday, November 4th, 2025 6pm
Where: Zoom

JOIN US

Mark your calendar: IRAD 2026 is just around the corner! Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Day (IRAD) is our largest annual event committed to collective learning and action in the name of immigrant and refugee justice. IRAD Pre-registration for WAISN members will begin on November 10th, and general registration will open on December 10th!

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 talked about the importance of first-hand reports because they are most likely to have the information we need to activate a Rapid Response team to verify, document, and support. Details are crucial when documenting violations of civil and criminal rights or violations of Keep Washington Working (KWW) and allow us to elevate cases to our coalition partners and electeds. Our rumor control flyer has information about what to look for when making a report:

LEARN MORE

We also dove into the term “Deportation Defense” (DD), which represents an intentional reclamation of language normally used in legal contexts. And at its core, DD is about care, solidarity and accountability for the safety and well-being of immigrants. At WAISN it shows up in many ways, including through the Hotline, our network of Rapid Response and Accompaniment volunteers, and the Fair Fight Bond Fund. It also shows up as the Know Your Rights information and vital community resources we share.

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.

Do you know what to do if ICE comes to your home or workplace? Come and learn that and more at one of our upcoming Know Your Rights Trainings:

Rapid Response

This month, we made explicit how Rapid Response is not mass mobilization and shared a statement from WAISN Executive Director Catalina Velasquez: “Rapid response is about protecting our neighbors in real time, and centering their safety, dignity, and autonomy. Mass mobilization has power, but when misaligned, it can turn immigrant lives into symbols for someone else’s outrage, and give the federal government cover to expand deportation efforts. We must be strategic and respond with nonviolence, not because we lack rage, but because we cannot afford to lose the ground immigrant organizers fought to build for decades. Solidarity with immigrants means listening, respecting immigrants’ agency, and showing up in ways that serve, not overshadow. We must continue building a strong, connected, and just world together. We must commit daily to collective care, defense, and justice.” 

We invited attendees to share how they are practicing and witnessing Rapid Response in their communities and heard powerful stories of mutual aid, care, vigilance, and accountability from across the state.

You can also join us for a Rapid Response Training workshop to learn more about existing rapid response networks that support impacted families, build community resistance in the face of mass detention and deportation, and hold immigration agencies accountable for how they are showing up in our communities:

On September 11 and 12, almost 300 Rapid Response and Accompaniment volunteers, WAISN members, Steering Committee members, and WAISN Legal Round Table members from across the state came together for our first ever Deportation Defense Convening. Under the slogan Rooted Resistance, we started organizing for community-led deportation defense cases: working with impacted families to exert pressure at key points in the detention pipeline to try to get a detained person released.

WAISN facilitators led sessions on:

  • Mapping the Deportation Pipeline
  • Deportation Defense 101: Community-Led Casework
  • Scenario planning
  • Panel Discussion with 4 organizers from across the state experienced in DD casework
  • Relationship building: basebuilding with community members and coalition building
  • Powermapping

Community Resources and Membership

We are excited to share that we now have twelve active accompaniment volunteer teams across Washington — a huge accomplishment that reflects how our network has grown in both capacity and commitment.

We currently have 186 vetted volunteers who are ready to respond, accompany community members to court hearings, ICE check-ins, and other critical appointments. This growth means more families and individuals are not facing these moments alone — they have someone standing beside them in solidarity.

To request Accompaniment Support call the Deportation Defense Hotline —1-844-724-3737. If you are unable to connect with us please send a text message stating you need accompaniment and ensure you include the day of accompaniment needed and the best number to reach you.

Save the date: Accompaniment Volunteer Training is coming up! On November 12, we will be hosting a virtual training, open to anyone who wants to support our immigrant and refugee communities as an accompaniment volunteer. Stay connected — we’ll be sharing more details soon, including the exact time and registration link.


If you are part of an organization fighting for immigrant justice, we want to invite you to join WAISN as an official organizational member! WAISN Organizational Membership is a statewide and intersectional paid membership model where your organizational superpowers and capacity can both support immigrant justice and receive support from the entire WAISN network.

General Meeting

Our general meeting is the third Thursday of every month, please join us on November 20 for the next one!

In solidarity,

The Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network


P.S. If you witness immigration activity, raids and detentions in Washington, please call 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 organizers speak Spanish and English, and we have interpretation available in nearly 300 languages.

¡Queremos agradecerles por asistir a nuestra Reunión General 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:


Política y Abogacía

ÚNASE A NOSOTROS en nuestra próxima reunión comunitaria de Política y Abogacía. Sabemos que la organización por la justicia para los inmigrantes es una lucha constante. Sigamos creando espacios de pertenencia y defensa para lograr un estado verdaderamente inclusivo y acogedor para todos los residentes de Washington, independientemente de su estatus migratorio.

Qué: Reunión comunitaria de política y abogacía
Cuándo: Martes, 4 de noviembre de 2025, a las 6pm
Dónde:Zoom

REGISTRARSE AQUÍ

¡Anótelo en su calendario: IRAD 2026 está cada vez más cerca! El Día de Abogacía para Inmigrantes y Refugiados (IRAD, por sus siglas en inglés) es nuestro evento anual más importante, dedicado al aprendizaje y la acción colectiva en defensa de la justicia para los inmigrantes y refugiados. ¡La pre-inscripción para los miembros de WAISN comenzará el 10 de noviembre, y la inscripción general se abrirá el 10 de diciembre!

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 o envíe un mensaje 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 1,400 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 hablamos sobre la importancia de los reportes de primera mano, ya que son los que tienen mayor probabilidad de tener la información que necesitamos para activar un equipo de Respuesta Rápida para verificar, documentar y dar apoyo. Los detalles son importantes cuando documentamos violaciones de derechos civiles y penales o violaciones de Keep Washington Working (KWW, por sus siglas en inglés) y nos permiten presentar estos casos a nuestros socios de coalición y a los representantes electos. Nuestro folleto de control de rumores tiene información sobre qué observar al hacer un reporte:

MÁS INFORMACIÓN AQUÍ

También hablamos sobre el término “Defensa contra la deportación” (DD, por sus siglas en inglés), que representa una recuperación intencionada del lenguaje que se usa normalmente en contextos legales. En esencia, la DD se trata de cuidar, apoyar y responsabilizarse de la seguridad y el bienestar de los inmigrantes. En WAISN esto se manifiesta de muchas formas, entre ellas a través de la línea de apoyo, nuestra red de voluntarios de respuesta rápida y acompañamiento, y el Fondo de Fianza Lucha Justa. También se manifiesta en la información sobre “Conozca sus derechos” y los recursos comunitarios esenciales que compartimos.

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.

Respuesta Rápida

Este mes, aclaramos que la Respuesta Rápida no es una movilización masiva y compartimos las palabras de Catalina Velásquez, directora ejecutiva de WAISN:

“La Respuesta Rápida consiste en proteger a nuestros vecinos en tiempo real y centrarse en su seguridad, dignidad y autonomía. La movilización masiva tiene poder, pero cuando no está bien alineada, puede convertir las vidas de los inmigrantes en símbolos de la indignación de otros y dar al gobierno federal una excusa para ampliar los esfuerzos de deportación. Debemos ser estratégicos y responder con no violencia, no porque nos falte ira, sino porque no podemos permitirnos perder el terreno que los organizadores de inmigrantes han luchado por construir durante décadas. La solidaridad con inmigrantes significa escuchar, respetar su capacidad de acción y estar presentes de manera que les sirvamos, no que les perjudiquemos. Los inmigrantes son una parte vital del movimiento sindical, y debemos seguir construyendo juntos un mundo fuerte, conectado y justo. Debemos comprometernos diariamente con el cuidado colectivo, la defensa y la justicia.”

Invitamos a los asistentes a compartir cómo están practicando y presenciando la Respuesta Rápida en sus comunidades y escuchamos historias impactantes de ayuda mutua, cuidado, vigilancia y responsabilidad en todo el estado.

También puede participar en un entrenamiento de Respuesta Rápida para obtener más información sobre las redes de voluntarios de respuesta rápida existentes que apoyan a las familias impactadas, fortalecen la resistencia de la comunidad frente a las detenciones y deportaciones masivas, y exigen a las agencias de inmigración que se responsabilicen de sus acciones contra nuestras comunidades:

El 11 y 12 de septiembre, casi 300 voluntarios de Respuesta Rápida y Acompañamiento, miembros de WAISN, miembros del Comité Directivo y miembros de la Mesa Redonda Legal de WAISN de todo el estado se reunieron para nuestra primera Convocatoria de Defensa contra la Deportación. Bajo el tema Resistencia con Raíces, comenzamos a organizarnos para casos de defensa comunitaria contra la deportación: trabajando con las familias impactadas para hacer presión en puntos clave del proceso de detención y tratar de que se libere a la persona detenida.

Los facilitadores de WAISN facilitaron sesiones sobre:

  • Historia de la Defensa contra la Deportación en WAISN
  • Analizando el Proceso de la Defensa contra la Deportación
  • Defensa contra la Deportación 101: trabajo liderado por la comunidad
  • Planificación de escenarios y manejo de un caso
  • Panel de discusión con cuatro organizadores de todo el estado con experiencia en casos de DD.
  • Creación de relaciones: creación de bases, creación de coaliciones, elaboración de mapas de poder
  • Mapas de poder

Recursos Comunitarios y Membresía

Nos alegra compartir que ahora tenemos 12 equipos de voluntarios de acompañamiento activos en todo Washington, un gran logro que muestra cómo nuestra red ha crecido tanto en capacidad como en compromiso.

Actualmente contamos con 186 voluntarios verificados que están listos para responder, acompañar a los miembros de la comunidad a las audiencias judiciales, visitas a ICE y otras citas importantes. Este aumento de voluntarios significa que más familias y personas no tienen que enfrentar estos momentos solas, sino que cuentan con alguien que las apoya y las acompaña.

Para solicitar acompañamiento, llame a la línea de defensa contra la deportación: 1-844-724-3737. Si no puede comunicarse con nosotros, envíe un mensaje de texto indicando que necesita acompañamiento y asegúrese de incluir el día en que lo necesita y el mejor número para comunicarse con usted.

¡Reserva la fecha: se acerca el Entrenamiento de Acompañamiento para Voluntarios! El 12 de noviembre, organizaremos un entrenamiento virtual, abierto a cualquier persona que desee apoyar a nuestras comunidades de inmigrantes y refugiados como voluntario de acompañamiento. Mantente conectado: pronto compartiremos más detalles, incluida la hora exacta y el enlace de inscripción.


Si formas parte de una organización que lucha por la justicia para los inmigrantes, ¡queremos invitarte a unirte a WAISN como miembro oficial de la organización! La membresía organizativa de WAISN es un modelo de membresía intersectorial y estatal pagada en el que los superpoderes y la capacidad de su organización pueden apoyar la justicia para los inmigrantes y recibir apoyo de toda la red WAISN.

¡ÚNASE A NOSOTROS!

Reunión General

Nuestra reunión general es el tercer jueves de cada mes. ¡Únase a nosotros el 20 de noviembre para la próxima!

    BADGER FORUM: Laliik: Sacred Mountain in Bureaucratic Quagmire

    September 1, 2026  12:00 PM - 1:30 PM
    https://badgers.clubexpress.com/content.aspx?page_id=722&club_id=392306&emtid=3209205288255

    Our iconic Rattlesnake Mountain is known as Laliik to Native Americans, for whom the mountain has been sacred for millennia.  The oft repeated and dubious local claim that it's the tallest treeless mountain neglects the true significance of its geology and ecology.  Its incorporation into the Hanford Site in 1943 initiated a complex history of federal involvement, culminating in its current and persistent off-limits status.   

    This forum will describe the mountain's history, geology, ecology, and cultural significance and seek to understand perspectives on possible futures for one of the region's treasures.
