Tomorrow, our community is coming together once again to protest the proposed ICE detention facility in Washington County.
As protests continue to grow, more than 50 local doctors and health care providers are now warning that this warehouse could spark a serious public health crisis across Hagerstown and Washington County. Their warning is clear: overcrowding, disease spread, and inadequate medical care inside the facility will not stay contained within its walls.
That is exactly why we must keep showing up and making our voices heard.
Join Hagerstown Rapid Response and Washington County Indivisible tomorrow outside the Washington County Commissioners meeting as community members continue demanding answers and calling for this dangerous plan to be stopped.
Location: 100 W. Washington St., Hagerstown, MD
Time: 8:45 AM Tuesday, March 31.
In addition, Washington County Indivisible will continue to gather signatures for their Citizens’ Resolution. This citizens’ resolution is a formal public statement condemning the Washington County Board of County Commissioners for supporting the proposed ICE detention facility. At its core, it argues that DHS and ICE have a documented record of abuse, deaths in custody, poor medical care, and unconstitutional conduct, and that by publicly backing the project, the County Commissioners are morally and politically responsible for what follows.
The resolution contends that by allowing the warehouse conversion to move forward and failing to answer residents’ concerns, the commissioners are neglecting their duty to represent and protect the community. It then formally declares that the citizens signing the resolution oppose the detention facility and intend to hold local officials accountable for their inaction, lack of transparency, and complicity.
Join us Tuesday, at 8:45 AM at 100 W. Washington St., Hagerstown, MD!
