Avelo Airlines Assists Deportation Flights

The Capital Region protested outside Albany Airport on May 31st, engaging in a National Day of Action against Avelo Airlines which operates flights out of Albany International Airport and is contracted with the Trump Administration to deport and help disappear the people that ICE has been kidnapping and sending to foreign gulags. Protesters brought hand made signs and energy to tell Avelo Airlines that they will not tolerate their profiteering from Trump’s unconstitutional acts. Hudson Mohawk Magazine’s Andrea Cunliffe was there and brings you this report speaking with Indivisible’s Bryan Pas Hernandes, Marianna Achlaoug, and Andreas Kriefall of Indivisible Albany, and Alexander Flood Director of Communications for New York Senator Patricia Fahy.
