Argentina Passes Anti-Labor Law Amid Fierce Protest and State Repression On Wednesday, Argentina's ruling party passed a crushing anti-labor law in the Senate. The bill, which sparked protests and police repression, still needs to be approved by the Chamber of Deputies.

"Argentine Senate passed President Javier Milei's labor reform bill."

"The passage of the bill came amid fierce protests by workers, labor unions, and anti-capitalist parties."

"Police used water cannons and rubber bullets against protesters."

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

BREAKING: A federal judge has ordered that 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his father be freed from ICE detention.

Families don't belong in detention.

the protests are feeling more spontaneous and organic and abundant which, to me, seems like a strong sign of sea change

I wrote a dispatch from being in Minneapolis yesterday, where the movement against ICE and to defend immigrants touches every inch of the city.

Thank you!

Dispatches from Minneapolis: The Movement Against ICE Has Touched Every Inch of the City Behind the powerful mass marches in Minneapolis is a community of tens of thousands of Minnesotans who are determined to defend their immigrant neighbors. The solidarity is creative, profound, and can be found in small and large expressions everywhere.

"The sea of people was endless."

"Entire families, baby boomers, activists draped in keffiyehs or waving Mexican flags, [..] and people from all walks of life filled the air with chants of 'ICE OUT.'"

"[A]n endless river of collective power."

FUCK ICE ❤️‍🔥

Thanks for the context and all your reporting!
