Democrats must refuse to vote for any funding bill that increases ICE’s budget and refuse to fund DHS until ICE’s abuses are stopped. You must demand that the DHS appropriations bill prohibit ICE and Border Patrol agents from carrying guns and unambiguously declare that agents do not have absolute immunity under the law if they harm civilians. Any bill must restrict ICE and Border Patrol's ability to conduct dragnet arrest operations and target people based on their race, language or accent. And the bill must clarify that ICE agents are liable under civil and criminal law if they harm civilians.
