Deport ICE Richmond: No City Money For Deportation After passing the nation's first sanctuary contracting ordinance to make sanctuary status real by ending contracts with ICE data brokers, the City of Richmond is trying to weasel out of the law and extend their contract with Vigilant Solutions until 2022. It's been postponed twice now, but June 25 will be the decision day. Vigilant Solutions is in contract with ICE to provide access to billions of license plate reader scans to help immigration enforcement hunt and track undocumented people and their families, friends and associates. ACLU has documented 9,000 ICE agents with access to Vigilant's LEARN database and 30,000 searches a month. Richmond City, while they have cut ICE off from their data, is still sending license plate scans with the real time location of city residents, workers and visitors to the Border Patrol and wants to give another $30,000 to a tech company making deportations happen. Please come down and help us stop it. Learn more. Location: Richmond City Council, 440 Civic Center Plz, Richmond Tuesday, June 18 • 7:00 – 9:00 pm
