Kansas City developers halt sale of warehouse for ICE detention center as public pressure mounts | KCUR - Kansas City news and NPR
"This decision wouldn’t have happened without several weeks of protest and collective action by low-wage workers with Missouri Workers Center and over 20 local immigrant and racial justice, faith, school, environmental, and civil rights groups," Terrence Wise said in the statement. "We will continue fighting to keep masked, unaccountable federal agents out of our communities and for the dignity, respect, and pathway to better citizenship that we all deserve."
"While Kansas City welcomes any news suggesting the halting of a planned conversion of a warehouse," [Kansas City Mayor Quinton] Lucas* wrote, "I will continue with our legislative, legal efforts, and community engagement to ensure no warehouse or similar facility in Kansas City or nearby is converted to a mass encampment warehouse of persons that is offensive to the dignity and human rights of those who would be detained within it."
Love you, Steve!
