Ricardo Reyes is a United States Marine Corps veteran and first generation immigrant, born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. He is the oldest of five siblings and a father of three who now fights to secure a better future for everyone as the Arizona lead organizer for Common Defense.
While U.S. President-elect Donald Trump appoints a new “government efficiency” committee and threatens to unleash the military in American cities, he is simultaneously pushing policies that will see billions poured into private security and surveillance companies—including those owned by his biggest campaign benefactors, with little or no accountability.
