Petition to Keep [City/Village Name] Safe and Fair for Everyone
We, the undersigned residents of the [City/Village Name], call on the [City Council / Village Board] to protect the rights and safety of all residents—regardless of immigration status.
Families in our community should not live in fear because of federal immigration enforcement. When neighbors are afraid to work, report crimes, or access public services, our whole community becomes less safe and less connected.
We ask our local leaders to adopt a Local Noncooperation and Community Trust Resolution to ensure that:
Local resources are used for local safety.
City or village employees - including police - shall not assist in civil immigration enforcement based on administrative ICE requests or warrants. Cooperation shall occur only when legally required, such as when there is a judicial warrant and a serious criminal case.Resident privacy is protected.
Local departments shall not collect or share immigration status information unless required by law.City or village property cannot be used for ICE operations.
No municipal building, parking lot, equipment, data system, or other resource shall be made available for federal immigration enforcement activities unless legally compelled by a judicial warrant.Transparency is required.
The city or village shall publicly report any federal requests for cooperation and document how they are handled.
By adopting these principles, [City/Village Name] will strengthen public safety, protect families, and ensure that local government remains accountable to the people who live here—not federal immigration agents.

What Is a 287(g) Agreement?
A 287(g) agreement is a voluntary partnership between U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and local or state law enforcement agencies. Through this program, ICE can train and authorize selected local officers to carry out certain federal immigration enforcement duties. In some cases there are financial incentives built in that include bonuses (bounties?) for arrests.
Do you want this to happen in your community?
An accident victim may be taken to jail by a state's highway patrol to check his or her immigration status.
Undocumented residents who are victims or witnesses will be afraid to report crimes to the police, creating public safety and national security gaps.
