Native voters could swing key midterm races, yet many remain politically “invisible.” Limited campaign outreach, distant polling places, unreliable mail service and voter ID requirements make casting a ballot more costly and difficult.

Young Native organizers are registering voters and pressing candidates to listen, while at least 355 Native candidates seek office, a record. A proposal to remove Native identity from the census adds urgency to efforts to protect representation, tribal sovereignty and voting rights.

AI is coming between you and your local news.

Here's the uncomfortable truth: AI summaries cut clicks to local newsrooms like ours by half, sometimes more. The reporters at your city council meetings, the fact-checkers, the humans who know what your community actually cares about? They get nothing.

And when local news disappears, it's not just journalists who lose. It's YOU, because nobody's left asking the tough questions.

Local news only exists when you show up.

ICE detained a 26-year-old Honduran construction worker in Chico as he headed to work Oct. 9. His family says he had lived there seven years without trouble with law enforcement. A relative says agents threatened two years in jail unless he agreed to deportation.

The arrest has left neighbors frightened and children struggling to sleep. According to his family, agents told him they had “a long list of people” to detain and would return soon.

Cuando una persona es detenida por las autoridades de inmigración, sus seres queridos no deberían batallar —encima de todo— para encontrar información precisa sobre la ubicación de su familiar y los pasos del proceso legal.

Por eso creamos “Guía migratoria: Del encuentro con ICE a la detención en Arizona”, un producto bilingüe reporteado por la periodista Stephanie Casanova y editado por Joanna Jacobo Rivera, de CALÓ News Arizona, y Liliana López Ruelas, de Somos Tucson.

La guía incluye nueve capítulos con información sobre cómo localizar a una persona detenida, reglas para las visitas, consejos para encontrar representación legal y recursos comunitarios, entre otros aspectos del proceso de detención en Eloy y Florence.

Está disponible de forma impresa y en línea en www.detentionguide.org

Este proyecto ha sido posible gracias al financiamiento y soporte de @altavozlab

Si necesitas una guía impresa o te gustaría ayudarnos a distribuirla, envíanos un mensaje.

When families are separated by immigration detention, access to reliable information matters. Altavoz Lab Community Journalism Fellow Stephanie Casanova (@casanovareports), alongside Joanna Jacobo Rivera (@joajacobo) of Caló News AZ (@calonewsaz) and Liliana López Ruelas (@lilianalopezruelas) of Somos Tucson (@somostucson), turned reporting into a practical resource for families navigating the system.

The result; a free, bilingual guide with essential information for families with loved ones in detention centers in Eloy and Florence, Arizona.

Explore the reporting and access the guide at detentionguide.org. Share it with someone who might need it.

Thank you so much to @casanovareports, @calonewsaz and @somostucson for inviting us to the presentation of the Immigration Guide: From an ICE Encounter to Detention in Arizona. 🌵

This resource aims to guide families in Tucson on how to navigate the immigration detention system when a loved one has been detained at the Eloy Detention Center or the Central Arizona Florence Correctional Complex.

The creation of this guide took almost a year of research and a lot of care for our community, and it shows! 🙌🏾

We’re also so happy to share that Sunnyside Foundation is included as a community resource through our Juntos Fund! 🧡

The guide is available as a zine (and we have copies to share!) as well as a longer version online. Check it out through the link in our bio.

Want to support undocumented and mixed-status families in our community?

You can make a gift to our Juntos Fund. Our neighbors need us, and we need each other. ❤️ by @calonewsaz

As the midterms approach, voting rights groups are mobilizing nationwide to help voters overcome barriers, from registering and reaching distant polling sites to obtaining government ID.

These obstacles are particularly pronounced for minority and immigrant voters. Groups are providing language assistance, helping secure documents and connecting voters with transportation.

Through hotlines, canvassing and year-round outreach, organizers are working to ensure eligible voters can participate without fear or confusion.
