Concerned community members have been made aware of a facility program that turns people over to ICE in Old Louisville and will hold a press conference there on Monday, June 16 at 10am. The location is 933 South Third Street.
The Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP) (website) where people who are involved in immigration programs have routinely come to check in, is now turning some people in to ICE.
“The idea that right here in the midst of us, people are being abducted, and torn away from their families, is chilling to me.” said David Horvath, a leader in Louisville Showing Up for Racial Justice (LSURJ) which was alerted to the ISAP role. “This place used to be a regular stop for immigrants to check in and now it is extremely dangerous to come here..it is entrapment." 
"ICE attacking individuals who have engaged with our system in good faith is a moral crime. ISAP must be ended, and ICE must be abolished." Said Galen ZS of Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).
“People across Louisville are coming together to show up for our immigrant neighbors.” said Carla F Wallace, of LSURJ. “We cannot let them come for any of us, without coming through all of us.” 
LSURJ discovered what ISAP is doing in the course of its Louisville Community Defense Network (LCDN) work. LCDN trains community members in knowing legal rights, nonviolent direct action, and responding to its 24 hour hotline to news of attacks on vulnerable communities by ICE and other governmental agencies.
