Univision and Telemundo: Pull the ICE & DHS ads down now.
Univision and Telemundo are airing ads paid for and produced by ICE and the Department of Homeland Security.
These ads promote the same anti-immigrant agenda pushed by the Trump administration. They are designed to create fear, isolate our people, and pressure families to self-deport.
We must defend
our right to feel safe.
This is about stopping deportation messaging at the source. It’s about affirming that our stories, our lives, and our communities deserve media that informs us, not targets us.

We refuse to let deportation propaganda set the tone in our neighborhoods. Using these platforms to spread fear and encourage self-deportation is harmful, unethical, and violates the trust of the audiences who built these networks.
Univision and Telemundo: Apaga el odio. Pull these ads now!
WHAT our communities hear ON TV AND ON THE RADIO
Univision and Telemundo are collaborating with ICE and the Department of Homeland Security and running anti-immigrant ads that demand immigrants leave the country immediately. In one ad, Kristi Noem (Secretary of DHS) states they are “deporting criminal illegal aliens,” and that if people don’t leave “we [ICE] will find you and deport you.”
These ads are a betrayal to the Latino and immigrant communities who have been loyal to Univision and Telemundo for decades. They promote the same anti-immigrant agenda pushed by the Trump administration and only create fear, uncertainty in our households and communities.
Media platforms like Univision and Telemundo need to defend our communities and not target us.
Why is this important?
Latino and immigrant communities keep Univision and Telemundo in business and they must do right by us. They must do better. Our dignity and safety is non-negotiable. We are demanding that Univision and Telemundo stop airing ICE and DHS commercials.
We refuse to let anti-immigrant and racist propaganda air on our screens and in our households. Using these platforms to spread fear and encourage self-deportation is harmful, unethical, and violates the trust latino audiences have built with these networks.
Univision and Telemundo: Apaga el Odio. Pull the ICE and DHS ads down now.
Who We Are
We are a political home for Latinx and Chicanx people who seek racial, economic, gender and climate justice.
Often we are told as Latinxs that in order to get ahead one needs to just work hard and not ask questions. We believe the opposite – we need to hold our heads high and speak out. Mijente helps people do this through campaigns, connects people across a wide network and serves as a hub for culture, learning and advocacy.
