Pulling a few highlights out of the google doc that
rydra_wong linked to in her post about the RAICES fundraiser to help reunite immigrant families.
1. On June 30 (next Saturday) is the Families Belong Together Protest. Events are being held all over the country.
Information and local event finder is here: https://www.familiesbelongtogether.org/

teaotter posted about this a few days ago which I didn't see because I was afk. Her post also had a link where you don't need to register for the rallies to get info: https://act.moveon.org/event/families-belong-together/search/?
2. Before then, if you haven't yet, call your Senators and Representatives. If they're against the current policy, thank them. Otherwise demand their stance and let them know you are outraged. The House is expected to vote on two anti-immigration bills on Thursday June 21, and neither addresses the current family separation policy. Tell your Rep to vote NO.
Other call tools listed in the google doc

The ACLU has a call tool specifically for Senators; the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) has a call tool that directs calls, tweets, facebook posts, and emails to all Members of Congress. Individuals can compose letters for delivery on the Herd on the Hill portal that will be cloud-printed in DC and walked over to the House and Senate.
