Keep fighting to abolish ICE; no new funding!
To: Sen. Smith, Sen. Klobuchar
From: A constituent in Minneapolis, MN
January 30
I’m glad to hear that the DHS bill has been carved out from the other 5 budget bills and that the Senate is now in discussions about how to rein in ICE. I want to be clear—we want NO NEW ICE FUNDING ever. But we want more. We want Miller, Noem, and Bondi gone. We want to see ICE agents’ faces and badges—no more masks and no more anonymity. We want an end to quotas and racial profiling. We want an independent investigation into Renee Good’s and Alex Pretti’s murders. We want oversight at detention centers so people in them can stay safe. We want an end to family detention centers. We want ICE out of our communities. And ultimately, we want ICE abolished and replaced with an immigration agency that abides by the law, has real guardrails, and treats immigrants humanely. And I want the Senator to vote no on any proposal until we have ironclad guarantees that we will get all of that. Thanks.
