Petition: Caldwell County, revoke fake “state of disaster” resolution!

The residents of Caldwell County deserve to be treated fairly with policies that aren't driven by fear-mongering. Caldwell County's 2022 “state of disaster” resolution spreads harmful falsehoods about immigrants, wrongly linking them to crime and disease, and creating a risk of violence. 

Caldwell County Commissioners must revoke this dangerous and misleading resolution, as residents have already pointed out that no real disaster exists. We urge the Commissioners to stop fueling divisive rhetoric by voting to revoke the resolution. 

We believe that people closest to problems are often closest to the solutions. We are driven by the conviction that we are strongest when communities impacted by systems of harm work together towards solutions that benefit us all.

Our campaigns aim to change policies and practices that reduce the scope of the incarceration and deportation machine, and we aim to redefine the narrative of safety in ways that do not involve arrest or deportation. We do this all by building power in our communities impacted by the carceral and immigration systems.
