END and ABOLISH ICE

End ICE. Defund it entirely, close every detention center, and say so publicly. This isn't a fringe position — it's the only rational response to an agency that has killed more people since January 2025 than in the previous two decades combined. 2025 saw the highest number of deaths in ICE custody s

Halt Weapons Transfers to Israel Amid Espionage Threat

Stop sending weapons to Israel.

Support a Wealth Tax on the Ultra-Rich

Pass a wealth tax on the ultra-wealthy. The evidence is overwhelming, the need is urgent, and the political will is the only thing missing.

The Supreme Court ruled Trump's tariffs illegal, and the government has already paid $81 billion in refunds — almost entirely to corporations.
