Summary
The Dallas Police Department (DPD) announced it will not participate in ICE immigration raids, instead launching outreach meetings to reassure immigrant communities.
Led by the UNIDOS Latino Community Outreach Program, the initiative aims to dispel misinformation and encourage crime reporting.
Interim Chief Michael Igo emphasized that DPD focuses on public safety, not immigration enforcement. However, individuals with outstanding warrants may still face arrest and possible deportation.
Additional meetings, including legal guidance sessions, are planned in Dallas and neighboring areas to support and inform migrant residents.
Texas will inevitably be blue. Just like what happened with California.
I keep patiently waiting but I’m so ready to ditch this place.
don’t leave. same reason i remain in florida. that’s why they want. if all the sane people leave, you raise the % of insane to sane.
we counter intuitively need more progressives to move and live in florida and texas. these are going to be the two most important starts in the upcoming century
plus while the government is insane, there are many varied and diverse communities in these states. i live in an immigrant heavy community in florid and absolutely love it more than the blue states i’ve lived in the past. minus the state government, needless to say
I wish I could believe that, but every time an area turn blue all they do is redraw the maps. Texas district 26 and 13 are perfect example of this. 13 was solid red going across north Texas and the panhandle. District 26 was turning more and more blue. So, they took the city of Denton and moved it into district 13. Denton is home to a liberal art college, so they watered it down by putting it in a district that is over 350 miles across, and filled with rural red voters. Meanwhile the extended district 26 north and west to include more red voters.
Edit: This is 26 before the redrew it
