The attorneys who assisted the travelers detained by Trump’s “Travel Ban” at the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport are asking for help in maintaining a space to continue their work. From the DFW Detained GoFundMe page:
These funds will be used to secure meeting space at DFW International Airport and puchase necessary supplies. NOT ONE DOLLAR of the money raised will be used to compensate the attorneys involved, who are donating their time and talents to this humanitarian effort. Any funds which are leftover after our work concludes will be donated to ACLU.
Chip in if you can. And if you know of similar calls for funds from around the nation, feel free to post in the comments.
The wording of your title made me think the regime had arrested someone who was helping those travelling. Donald Ducktator is certainly capable of it.
Apologies–not my intent. Just took the title from their fundraiser page at the end of a long day!
No apology needed. Both situations, the real and the possible, require people stand up and be counted. We’re in dark times.
