What do we do when we win? We keep winning! Call the Dodgers Executive Offices at 866-DODGERS X9 or email [email protected] and say "Thank you Mark Walter for getting out of the ICE jail and deportation flight industry. Will you use your platform to get other financial leaders to divest from GEO Group? Go Dodgers!" When you call or email, drop me a line to let me know what response you get.
The LA Times reported this week: "[A]s the last of the money flowed to immigrant families in need in late August, another petition circulated that demanded Dodgers owner Mark Walter sell his “company’s stake in ICE jails and deportation flights. ”Walter’s massive investment firm, Guggenheim Partners, owned more than a million shares of GEO Group, valued at nearly $12 million. By the end of 2025, Guggenheim’s interest in GEO Group had fallen to around 10,000 shares. And by the end of March of this year, Guggenheim no longer owned any shares of the prison company that also assisted in the deportation of immigrants, according to SEC filings reviewed by The Times."
We won! Dodgers owner dumped ICE!
The Los Angeles Times broke the story on Wednesday: "Dodgers fulfill $1-million pledge in response to ICE raids, owners divest from prison group" https://www.latimes.com/sports/dodgers/story/2026-06-24/dodgers-fulfill-1-million-pledge-in-response-to-ice-raids
ABC7 Eyewitness News aired a story on TV last night: https://abc7.com/post/dodgers-fulfill-1-million-pledge-support-families-immigrants-impacted-los-angeles-ice-raids-report-says/19381152/

What a Game 3!! A true team effort, I love to see it.
And our campaign has momentum. More than 2,500 people have joined in the last 24 hours, and the great Gustavo Arellano referenced us in his LA Times column on Monday. Thank you for signing the petition!

This is getting around fast! Thank you for signing and sharing! I just wrote this to a friend... I'm really trying to see if we can reach 100 signatures by Friday morning (like 9 am?) at which point I'll feel solid about emailing reporters who are going to be spending the day writing their content for the start of the World Series. I think it's timely for smart and tuned in reporters to look back on the buzz about the Dodgers' engagement around the escalation of the ICE raids in June and ask what now are Dodgers fans who are hurt and exhausted by the masked kidnappings feeling about loving the team when it's not clear if the Front Office fully loves us back. I think our moment is Friday & Saturday as the World Series kicks off and all eyes are here.
So I'd love it if you'd text it/share it on your FB/anywhere to your fellow Dodger friends to see what they think ❤️ Go Dodgers!
