Lakewood Indivisible is asking community members from Lakewood and local cities to join us at our 12/9 city council meeting to bring attention to the city council regarding the direct impact federal activities are having on Lakewood residents. If you are a Lakewood resident, we are asking you to sign up to speak during the public commentary at the end of the meeting.Be sure to sign your name on the city’s roster before the meeting starts. You will need to sign in early and stay through the whole meeting until the public comment portion at the end. Each person is allowed up to 3 minutes to speak. Share your stories, your suggestions, and your demands that city council take steps to protect our community. If you are not a Lakewood resident, please come be a part of the audience and support our speakers. We will be keeping the speaking going as long as we can, so bring snacks and water.
Recommended talking points:
-How long have you been a Lakewood resident? What is your experience with this city?
-How are ICE activities impacting Lakewood businesses and residents?
-What are you asking the city council to do? (We are urging the city invest in Know Your Rights trainings, acknowledge those who have already been taken by ICE in Lakewood, disallow ICE from using city property to stage, notify the community when ICE is in the area, join other cities in legal action against the federal government)
