ICE is storming job sites across the country, without legal warrants or probable cause. These raids aren’t just illegal – they’re violent, traumatizing, and part of a coordinated campaign to intimidate immigrant workers.
They show up unannounced. They bypass court orders. They detain people without cause. And now, under Trump, this abuse of power is being backed by military force.
That’s not an exaggeration. The Trump administration mobilized the National Guard — against peaceful protestors and immigrant communities. And as if that wasn’t enough, they’re arresting union leaders like David Huerta and hitting them with felony charges simply for speaking out.
Union members in California and nationwide have stood on the frontlines – joining picket lines outside detention centers, protesting ICE raids at job sites, and refusing to stay silent when our coworkers are targeted. Because solidarity isn’t just a slogan – it’s a lifeline.
Already, ICE has taken thousands of workers away from their families. Many of those families still don’t know where their loved ones are, whether they’re receiving due process, whether they have access to a lawyer, or anything! But this is what unions have known all along: Powerful people, organizations, and corporations don’t follow the rules unless they’re forced to.
In solidarity,
Trader Joe’s United
