Oye Owolewa and a coalition of community organizations, advocates, and residents will protest outside Clark Construction’s DC office on Tuesday, April 14, from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM at 1200 New Hampshire Ave NW, Suite 510. The coalition’s demands are clear: Clark Construction must immediately withdraw from any ICE-related projects in Washington, DC.

“Clark Construction is making a deliberate choice to profit from the expansion of ICE,” Owolewa said. “This is not neutral work. Building cages, offices, and enforcement infrastructure for ICE has real human consequences—and Clark is choosing to be part of that.”

The action will feature speakers, poets, chanting, and public education, as protesters engage passersby and call attention to the private companies that profit from immigration enforcement.

Organizers say this protest is the beginning of a broader pressure campaign that will continue to escalate until Clark responds.

“We are prepared to keep showing up,” Owolewa continued. “Clark’s reputation, partnerships, and public standing are all on the line.” There is almost unanimous local opposition to ICE’s activities in the district.
