Stop Border Patrol checkpoints, raids, surveillance,
racial profiling, expansion plans & waste of tax dollars

What is the
Border Patrol doing
on Washington’s
Olympic Peninsula?

While the Department of Homeland Security has told us that they are expanding their presence on the Olympic Peninsula to make us safer—that their primary objective is to stop terrorism and to stem the flow of illegal goods across our borders—their activities tell a different story...
Read the story here.

All of a sudden we have these random searches and seizures of everybody and this is happening within 100 miles of our borders. It just shocks me that this is legal, it strikes me that it’s immoral, and it violates our sense of community.
—Scott Wilson, Publisher of The Leader

They target people of color, specifically.
—Melisa Eyle, Native American

If you can explain to me why we should pay Border Patrol agents to strike fear into local families by staking out public buses, schools, grocery stores and Catholic churches when we don’t have money to provide drug and alcohol treatment to the families who cycle through the courts where I work every day, please justify this expenditure of money we don’t have.
—Ruth Gordon, Jefferson County Clerk

We oppose Border Patrol activities inside our borders. These activities abuse our
civil liberties, waste physical & financial resources, & do not enhance border security.
