Official Daily Action for Thursday, March 5, 2026
The following comes from the Stop Sharing DOL Data With ICE coalition:
A few weeks ago, a report from the UW Center for Human Rights confirmed what immigrant communities already knew: across our state, federal immigration agents are using drivers’ private data – checking their license plate numbers in the Washington Department of Licensing (DOL) database – to carry out immigration arrests on our streets and highways.
Many of these arrests are warrantless; many are violent; and many bear the classic hallmarks of racial profiling. State law prohibits these practices, and specifically bars the DOL from sharing drivers’ data with federal agents for purposes of civil immigration enforcement. Yet this is exactly what the agency is doing, once again.
Click here to write to Gov. Ferguson to put an end to this and commit to transparency and accountability in state data sharing: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/9256c4ac4c6050ac3d4592a6139578e86225e5c9
