A reader reports seeing this on a Bus stop in SW this morning. Whether or not this is an official flyer, let us remember the words of Mayor Bowser:
“We celebrate our diversity and respect all DC residents no matter their immigration status. We are a sanctuary city because we know that our neighborhoods are safer and stronger when no one is afraid to call on our government for help, and when our police can focus on protecting and serving.”
Update from Mayor Bowser:
We have been alerted to flyers regarding US Immigration and Customs Enforcement – please know that these are not real. [1/3] https://t.co/fdKfmLm93v

And a reminder that we respect all DC residents no matter their immigration status. Washington, DC remains a sanctuary city. #DCvalues [3/3]
