🚨Community Alert: Today, our rapid response teams at SSIP & WWJ went out to investigate reports of ICE activity at local warehouses in Lockport, Bolingbrook, Romeoville and Woodridge. We were able to confirm that ICE visited several warehouses but only 1 arrest took place. 🧵

The arrest happened at the RJW warehouse in Lockport, while other warehouses denied them entry. Thank you to the community members who reported the activity. We can protect each other!

9 in 10 American voters support OSHA’s heat rule, including 96% of Democrats and 86% of Republicans. But powerful business lobbyists oppose it. @WarehouseWorker @NationalCOSH @SEIU inthesetimes.com/article/osh…

Amazon is systematically discriminating against workers who are injured and disabled on the job. Shoutout @WarehouseWorker for fighting back ✊
As part of a national day of action, we joined an Amazon #MDW2 worker today in demanding immediate reinstatement after being unjustly fired due to her disability accommodation. 😡 WWJ stands with workers across the country coming together to #MakeAmazonPay!
