Free the Duluth 5! Abolish ICE!

 The five roofing workers who were abducted by ICE (Immigrant & Customs Enforcement) on February 27 have been located.  They were taken to the Kandiyohi County Jail in Willmar, Minnesota.  Local activists are still trying to make contact with them and ascertain their status.  Let us know if you have any activist or jail contacts in Willmar. We also want to let folks know about the weekly immigrant solidarity protests that are being held in the Duluth neighborhood where ICE (Immigration & Customs Enforcement) abducted these workers. The protests are on the corner of Superior Street & 60th Ave. E every Thursday at noon.
