SACRAMENTO PROGRESSIVE ALLIANCE: DSA Action Alert

Tuesday, March 28, 2017

DSA Action Alert

Sacramento County Sheriff, Scott Jones, is hosting an immigration community forum with ICE Director, Thomas Hamon, at the Sacramento County Youth Gym, 4000 Branch Center Road, Sacramento CA 95827, MARCH 28 at 5:00-7:00pm. There is a large counter- protest, organized by many different groups, being held at this forum. Sac DSA invites you to join the counter-protest, be loud, and stand up for immigrants!

Sacramento County jail currently cooperates with ICE- reserving 165 beds in the county jail for ICE detainees and allows ICE officials access to inmates for interrogation in exchange for 8 million dollars.

As democratic socialists, we believe in people over profit- all workers in our society, no matter their documentation status, deserve equal rights and treatment.

Join us as we protest Scott Jones, ICE director Thomas Hamon, and Trump's racist agenda. We need you!

In solidarity,

Sac DSA

Mission Statement

Welcome to the PROGRESSIVE ALLIANCE. We are a multi-racial, multi-issue "rainbow coalition" dedicated to social justice, peace and building progressive power. Our key priorities include economic justice; equal rights and equal opportunities for all regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation; international solidarity; humanitarian service; eradicating poverty at home and abroad; environmental protection and sustainable development; and electing progressives to public office and then holding them accountable.

Founded in 2005, we have grown to more than 7,000 members and have emerged as one of the largest and most grassroots activist groups in California. We are proud to serve as a local chapter Our Revolution, the national movement inspired by Bernie Sanders' historic 2016 Presidential Campaign, and as a local affiliate of United for Peace & Justice (UFPJ), a network of several hundred peace and justice groups from all over the world.
