The People’s Court for Crimes Against Immigrants

On September 25th, DRUM YouthPower! members organized a People’s Court to hold President Obama and Senator Chuck Schumer accountable to their actions and inaction when it comes to the undocumented immigrant community. Every day 1,100 people are deported and under the current Obama administration, over 2,000,000 people have been deported.  Over 80 DRUM members and allies came out to be a part of the peoples court outside of Senator Schumer’s office to demand justice for all immigrants.
