San Diego County Sheriff: STOP deporting our neighbors and separating families. 

The San Diego Sheriff Department (SDSD) is colluding with DHS/ICE by transferring individuals to ICE, notifying ICE when individuals are released from jail, allowing DHS/ICE access to county property and to individuals in their custody, participating on joint task forces with DHS/ICE, and sharing information, data and resources with DHS/ICE. 

This collusion with DHS/ICE has resulted in the deportation and detention of community members, and the separation of families in our region. This harms our communities, and runs counter to the County's commitments to racial equity and inclusion. 

SDSD collusion with DHS/ICE must stop immediately. 

Seven other counties in California (Contra Costa, Humboldt, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Joaquin, San Mateo and Santa Clara) have already recognized the harm that collusion with DHS/ICE causes, and have chosen to stop ICE transfers and notifications. It is time for San Diego to join them. 

We call upon Sheriff Kelly Martinez and the Board of Supervisors to take the following immediate steps towards stopping collusion with DHS/ICE TODAY:

  1. STOP transferring individuals to ICE and notifying ICE when individuals are released from jail (ICE transfers and notifications).

  2. STOP allowing DHS/ICE access to county property, including parking lots.
