An Open Letter

To: Sen. Givhan, Gov. Ivey, Rep. Reynolds

From: A constituent in Huntsville, AL

January 24

I am writing as a constituent to demand you take immediate and definitive action to end the destructive operations of ICE. This agency’s lawless conduct continues to inflict violence and trauma in our communities, including the recent killings in Minneapolis. Specifically, I demand that you: 1. Publicly commit to opposing any appropriations bill that maintains funding for ICE. 2. Support and co-sponsor legislation to claw back the $75 billion ICE slush fund created by H.R. 1 last year, and redirect those resources toward community-based safety and humane immigration solutions. 3. Personally tour detention facilities in our state to witness the conditions firsthand and report transparently to your constituents. ICE’s violence against immigrants and citizens must end. I expect you to use your position to defund, dismantle, and dissolve this agency for good.
