Schools: Drop ICE Mass Call · AFT

We will cut off ICE’s corporate enablers — starting on our campuses. Donald Trump’s deportation machine depends on private corporations for technology to track, places to sleep, cars to drive, planes to fly, and parking lots to stage. Colleges — and the students, faculty, and staff they rely on — have real leverage over the companies providing these services to ICE through purchasing, partnerships, and public legitimacy. The fastest way to shrink ICE’s capacity is to cut off its corporate support: push our schools to stop funding and normalizing ICE collaborators. On this call, you’ll hear how organizers in Minneapolis and beyond moved from defense to offense—picking a few winnable targets and escalating sustained, nonviolent pressure that hits brands and bottom lines. You’ll leave with concrete tools to map your university’s ties, link up with others on your campus, and run an escalating campaign that forces decision-makers to drop ICE’s billionaire partners.

NO KINGS Billings · AFT

**In America, we don’t put up with would-be kings.** 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. 📍 Where: Yellowstone County Courthouse Lawn 217 N 27th St 📅 When: Noon - 2 October 18, 2025 _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._

“Colorado voters approved a ballot measure to provide free meals for all public school students. The measure will help schools pay for the meals by raising $100 million a year by increasing taxes on the state's richest residents. https://t.co/w3kir6m6oj”

Important point from @AndrewYang. People are losing good paying jobs and that laid the groundwork for Trump to be elected. We need to focus on good jobs and the economy. #AFTvotes #DemDebate
