Wins. Successes. Progress.

Safe

Welcoming Wyandotte

Safe and Welcoming Wyandotte is a recently passed policy that would create a municipal ID program. It would also issue an ICE non-compliance resolution that would not allow local law enforcement to share immigrant status information to ICE.

This policy passed thanks to the work of many coalition partners including our own coalition member, Irene Caudillo. Great work Irene!

Many parts of this policy however are being challenged by a bill recently approved by Governor Kelly. The Safe and Welcoming Wyandotte coalition is planning a panel and conversation in response. The panel will be held on April 28th from 8-10:30am at the Hilton Garden Inn, 520 Minnesota Ave, Kansas City, KS. RSVP here.
