SUMMARY:Jericho Walk for Maria
DESCRIPTION:There is a Jericho Walk\, organized by the American Friends Service Committee\, on September 30 at 8:30 am.  This is to show support and solidarity for an immigrant mother\, Maria\, and her two children\, as Maria reports to ICE. We first brought the plight of Maria to your attention on May 28 when we organized a rally in Newark for her benefit.  Maria has been required to report to ICE every month\, since late last year\, and she brings her children everytime. \nThe walk begins at 8:30 am on September 30 outside of the federal building located at 970 Broad Street\, Newark\, NJ. \nWe urge anyone who is able to show up and demonstrate the community’s backing of Maria and to accompany her to her ICE check-in. Bring people from your congregation and other friends. It is extremely important that ICE understands that many people in this state support immigrants like Maria and hold ICE accountable for treating them fairly. \nWe are also looking for someone willing to be the point person for this Jericho Walk\, who will coordinate UUs and friends interested in going that morning and write something for an action alert. Anyone who is willing to do this\, contact the FaithAction office\, (908) 376-6535 or admin@uufaithaction.org.  We hope to have a strong sea of UU supporters!

SUMMARY:FaithAction led Rally for Jorge Chajon
DESCRIPTION:An important\, UU FaithAction led and directed rally\, happening in Newark\, Friday Nov. 9th at 11:45 p.m.\, Federal Immigration Court\, 97 Broad St. Newark NJ.  I am urging my fellow UUs to turn out on Nov. 9th\, if at all possible. \n \nWe have the chance to make a real difference in the life of one family\, the Chajons\, caught up in the draconian changes in US policy\, but also to many other detainees languishing in prisons for no other reason than they sought refuge\, safety and a better life free from grinding poverty\, gangs and endemic violence. \n\nIf you haven’t yet signed the petition to release Jorge Chajon from his 17 month detention in the Elizabeth Detention Center\, you may do so here:\nhttps://www.change.org/p/kristen-peck-keep-the-chajon-famil… \nWhat’s Different About this Rally: \nMany of you have already signed the petition circulated by NJ UU from Beacon/Summit\, Dr. Kristen Peck supporting 15 month detainee\, Jorge Chajon. \nUUs and our allies will be staging this rally in front of the ICE Regional Office the same day as what may be Jorge’s final detention hearing. Jorge came to the US as a 13 year old from Guatemala\, making the dangerous journey to follow his parents. He was granted DACA status by the previous administration and has no criminal record. He has a US citizen wife\, a 2 year old and 10 month old child he has never visited outside of detention center visits. \nOur goal is to create a media event\, humanizing it with the story of one man and his family and dramatizing the ongoing plight of many like them here in NJ and across the US. We will unfurl a large banner made up of some of the 2500+ petitions and some of us will sit in on the hearing to show our support to the judge and staff for Jorge’s case. \nPlease let me know if you are able to join me and fellow UUs and lay activists for all or part of that Friday afternoon. We could use extra helpers\, marshals\, social media/smart camera operators\, etc. Please reach out to our office to volunteer www.uufaithaction.org. A crowd helps! Invite all and sundry\, and expect more communications including a press release over the next several days. \nAnd thanks. We amplify each others voices and those whose voices are suppressed or lost in the shuffle. I appreciate your ongoing support for UU FaithAction NJ.
