Dear Kalispell City Council,
I live in Kalispell MT and I write today, to add to other voices, in requesting our City Council provide
leadership for and protection of, everyone in our community, regardless of their skin color.
This specifically includes non-cooperation with ICE, DHS, and CBP. These federal agencies are now
rogue, are violating civil and human rights, and have no business being in our communities removing
and abusing people whether they are citizens or not.
Non-cooperation looks like: no data sharing, no phone calls, no support, no use of our local
government facilities, building, or resources.
As a community member, I do not support DHS, ICE, or CBP in our small city. I do not support fascism.
You as a council shouldn't either and should be clear in your policy and behavior as such. We do not
support state-sanctioned terrorists in our community!
Thank you for reading my concerns.
