ICE Out Protest Hosted by Handmaids of Las Vegas
The Handmaids of Las Vegas hosted an ICE Out protest in front of ICE Headquarters in Las Vegas, NV. The protest took place on Friday, March 6, 2026.
I interviewed the founder for the Handmaids of Las Vegas, Nevada.
Q. What brings you out here today?
A. “We’re here in protest against ICE. We want to see ICE abolished for all the damage that they’ve done to our country and here locally in Las Vegas. As everyone is well aware that their processes are extreme and they’re inhumane, and we need to put a stop to it.
So the Handmaids down here every other Friday at the ICE office, which is behind us and we will be standing here every other Friday until something is done. Whether ICE has been abolished or the people who are affected and detained by ICE are free.”
Q. So what do you want people to understand?
A. “I want people to understand that the Handmaids we are a nonprofit organization here in Las Vegas. We do a lot of community service and help with the community. Right now, our main focus is to help the immigrants that are affected and the US citizens that are affected by ICE right now, with food, clothing, grocery shopping, they feel very unsafe to be able to go out, because they’re afraid they’re going to be taken because of the color of their skin, whether they’re US citizens or not. We’re offering support services for that and also keeping watch of ICE and where they’re located and tracking them. We want to be here to ensure the community that we are here to stand for you when you can’t stand for yourself and be your voice where you can’t be heard.”
Q. How are you feeling about all of this?
A. “I feel hopeful, I see our community coming together more and more. We see a lot of organizations that are actually uniting and doing a lot of effective things together. We’re preparing here so incidences that have happened like in Minneapolis and Chicago and North Carolina do not affect us here, that we’ll be ready. The main primary focuses, I really love seeing all of the organizations get together to support our community and our citizens.”
Neither representatives from ICE nor the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department agreed to be photographed or interviewed at the time of this report.
