ICE out of Cumberland County Jail
ICE out of Cumberland County Jail

More Info and RSVP: https://actionnetwork.org/events/ice-out-of-cumberland-county-jail-2
Description:
Cumberland County Jail is the largest ICE-contracted detention facility in Maine. The county can break the contract with only 30 days of notice.
Sheriff Joyce and the Board of Commissioners say the contract is just the status quo and that prisoners are better off being taken far away from their families and networks of support and brought to Maine.
On Monday, November 17th, the Board of County Commissioners are holding their next meeting where they are required to hear public comment. Come demand that Cumberland County end their contract with ICE.
You can access the No ICE for ME linktree here.
