Jews Against ICE | Protest

A large demonstration by a coalition of Jewish organizations in support of immigrants and against the current policies and practices by ICE, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency of the Homeland Security Department. The entirely peaceful but rousing protest was held in front of of ICE's Washington DC headquarters. Whistles and shofars were blown, and Hebrew prayers and chanting were offered up.

Among the sponsoring groups involved were Truah, Bend the Arc, J Street, HIAS, Jews United for Justice, the Jewish Labor Committee, and many area synagogues and havurot.
