Interfaith rally held in support of 'Immigrant Protection Package'

In Annapolis, an interfaith rally was held in support of legislation aimed at protecting immigrants. People marched from Calvary United Methodist Church to Lawyer's Mall in downtown Annapolis. On Monday, WBAL-TV joined them as the group shared the message: "No justice, no peace! No ICE in our streets!" Marylanders of various faiths took to the streets of Annapolis Monday. They came together over a unified concern, the treatment of immigrants. "Faith leaders joining CASA, standing with us to say, in Maryland, we welcome our immigrant neighbors, and we will support them," Ninfa Amador-Hernandez, policy analyst for CASA, said. They're backing CASA's "Immigrant Protection Package," that is currently in the statehouse and includes three main pieces of legislation: • The "Protecting Sensitive Locations Act" ensures people can access hospitals, schools and courthouses without fear of immigration enforcement. • The "Maryland Data Privacy Act" prevents ice from obtaining access to state and local agency databases without a warrant. • The "Maryland Values Act" ends agreements that allow local police to act as ICE agents.
