No to ICE "concentration camps" in Nevada!

No ICE "concentration camps" in Nevada! I've seen coverage in the news that currently, residents of Surprise, Arizona, are speaking up in opposition to ICE establishing huge detention centers in their area, and are being described by some as "concentration camps." I've read in the news that isola

Democrats need leadership at the national level that reflects the fighters who are winning elections. The civil, nice guy politics of the 20th century are no longer working. I'm asking you to get Schumer and Jeffries out, and replace them with Democrats who will listen to us, their constituents, not

Threats of "Armed ICE agents" at the "polls".

Dear staffer. Thank you for reading my message to the Governor. Please pass it on. Governor Lombardo: I expect you to refuse to allow Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to be anywhere near our polling places. With all due respect, Governor, you know ICE is out of control. Your State deser

No More Bombings on Trump's Whim, Support an Iran War Powers Resolution

Less than eight months after President Trump and Secretary of Defense Hegseth insisted Iran’s nuclear program was “obliterated,” they are apparently again concerned enough about it that they are considering another set of military strikes. Or they may be trying to protect protests, even though Tehra

Reform ICE NOW

Today, I was deeply moved by listening to the testimony of Aliyah Rahman, a US Citizen who was ripped from her car and unlawfully detained. Since you were not present at the testimony, I highly urge you to listen to what she had to say. To say her description of her experience is unsettling is a dra

Are up I just going to let Trump steal billions of American taxpayer dollars because he's "settled" his lawsuit against the US government? First of all, Congress gets to decide how money is spent. Secondly, we DO NOT pay taxes to donate the funds to Trump! We likewise don't want to pay for ICE.

NO MORE FUNDING FOR ICE

As a registered, voting Democrat in Queens who never misses an election, I implore you to hold strong against the Republicans and vote NO on any measure funding ICE. I don't want a single dollar more of my hard-earned tax dollars paying for masked thugs to profile, kidnap, harm and terrorize people.

Thank you for not advancing the SAVE Act

Thank you for not bringing the SAVE Act to a vote. This bill has been stalled for nearly 300 days, and that's exactly what should happen to legislation that undermines both our Constitution and the right to vote. The SAVE Act violates the basic structure of our federalist system. States have exclus

Defunding ICE and halting the DHS fascist machine is essential. If it means shutting down our government, so be it. Nothing is more important than defending people from their attacks, the flagrant violations of our constitutional rights, and the impunity under which DHS/BPS/ICE agents have been ac

Please protect librarians by opposing S.B 74

I'm requesting that you protect librarians, by opposing S.B.74. Since 1985, librarians have been exempt from Georgia’s “harmful to minors” bill. The current S.B. 74, which passed out of the House subcommittee this week, is an attempt to roll back those protections. Librarians in all public librar

Austin Park Surveillance. Expand APD’s Real-Time HALO vs 3rd Party LVT

I support improving safety in Austin parks, but I worry that building a separate, vendor‑run camera network will make it harder for Austin Police Department (APD) to use the footage. Since APD already has the HALO camera network and a real‑time monitoring center, I ask Council to first evaluate wha

Consciousness of Guilt. The fact that the ICE agents are wearing masks indicates a consciousness of guilt as they rampage through Minneapolis. They know that they are breaking federal laws and violating the constitutional rights of citizens and immigrants. They are counting on a blanket pardon from

I am writing to express a serious concern over ice and the powers they have been " given" by Noem and the rest of the administration. If ICE agents commit crimes in our city or state, will they be arrested like anyone else?  If they murder someone and flee the scene, if they beat someone during an
