I'll never forget Rev. Jesse Jackson's steadfast support for the Hamilton Family & their fight for justice. His presence brought more local & nat'l media attention, helped reinvigorate the movement in MKE, & amplified the family's demand for a fed. investigation into the police killing. #restinpower

South Division High School students walked out of classed this morning in protest of ICE. South Division serves one of the most diverse student bodies in Milwaukee Public Schools, including a large population of immigrant and refugee students. I stand with them! #ICEfreeMKE

The students will lead & the leaders will follow! Bay View HS students walked out in protest of ICE this afternoon. They joined students across SE WI & the nation who've walked out of classes in recent weeks to teach us all an important lesson about standing up to hate & injustice. Thank you!

"No Hate, No Fear, Immigrants Are Welcome Here!" Golda Meir HS students walked out of classes this afternoon in Milwaukee in response to the horrific & violent actions by ICE in Minneapolis & across this country. They marched to the downtown ICE detention facility to make sure they were heard.

Milwaukee turned out tonight in response to ICE's horrific murder in Minneapolis this week. Renee Nicole Good is the eighth person to be killed by Trump's gestapo. People are rising up to stop ICE Terror. We won't let ICE continue to rip apart our families, our communities, & our democracy.

We won't let ICE terrorize our neighbors and communities! The streets outside Milwaukee's downtown ICE office were flooded tonight in response to ICE's murder of Renee Nicole Good today in Minnesota. #ICEoutofMKE

ICE out of our courts & communities! A large crowd is gathered outside Milwaukee Federal Courthouse in support of Judge Hannnah Dugan. Her case, which is this week, represents nothing more than another attack on immigrant rights & an independent judiciary. Drop the charges! #JudgeDugan #ICEFreeMKE

MKE’s #MayDay march was massive! Rain didn't stop us from rising up against the tyrant Trump, who is quickly dismantling our democracy, illegally consolidating power, stripping away due process, privatizing public ed, enriching billionaires, exploiting working people, & scapegoating immigrants.

Milwaukee says, drop the charges on Judge Dugan! Stop FBI repression on immigrant rights.

Join a 3pm rally outside the Federal Courthouse today at 3pm in support of Judge Hannah Dugan who was arrested this morning. Her arrest is a shocking escalation from a fascist regime intent on sending a chilling message to the judiciary and a violation of the separation of powers.

Two weeks ago the people of Milwaukee were heard in a massive #handsoff demonstration at the federal building. Today the people were seen. Milwaukeeans held signs and banners on highway overpasses and engaged in neighborhood cleanups across the city in response to the fascist in the Oval Office.

As if you needed any more reasons to dislike the Dodgers. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

The Dodgers Are Planning to Visit the White House. It’s a Disgrace.
To meet with Trump now is to defile the memory of Dodgers great Jackie Robinson and to humiliate many of team’s own players.

One of my favorite signs from today's massive Milwaukee Hands Off rally outside the federal building downtown. Over 8,000 people turned out to tell Trump and unelected billionaires they will not steal our democracy. #handsoff

MTEA Member & Allen Field School teacher Alondra Garcia has been unfairly targeted by MPS Admin for supporting MPS students & families by sharing the 2017 MPS Safe Haven Policy. MTEA will defend the rights of our members to teach the truth & support students & families in need...

A major victory for public education and the students, staff, and families at Pulaski High School and ALBA! At the October 31 meeting of the MPS School Board, the Board voted against renewing leases with private charter school operator Carmen, which occupies significant space in ALBA and Pulaski.
