EMERGENCY PRESS CONFERENCE - 4 PM, OUTSIDE OF TRAVIS COUNTY JAIL, 500 W 10TH ST. AUSTIN, TX

This morning around 8:50 AM, Misael Ramos, Austin DSA-endorsed candidate for City Council District 1, was arrested by state troopers while walking his dog. His neighbors watched as troopers, many in unmarked vehicles, detained him wihtout ever showing a warrant. He is now being held at Travis County Jail on a misdemeanor charg that his campaign believes is tied to his participation in the protests after ICE agents shot Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, a delivery driver in North Austin, last weekend.

Speaking out for our immigrant neighbors is not a crime. Misael has always shown up for our community, and now we need to show up for him.

Jeez. The court may have stopped some third-country removals at the last second yesterday, but ICE recalibrated quickly. Sept. 24 saw the most ICE flights+removals in the months I've been keeping a daily log. --at least 90 flights --at least 18 removals, including Haiti --plus a stop at Gitmo

After the tent camp plan of 2025 fell through, and the warehouse plan of early 2026 fell through, ICE's third attempt at spending their billions appears to be constructing new permanent detention centers on existing federal property.

ICE will no longer be responsible for them. This is common sense.
