Stop Trump's blatant infringements on human rights The government's program of collecting DNA from immigrants, including children, and storing it in a national criminal database is an egregious violation of privacy and civil liberties. This "massive surveillance dragnet" treats immigrants as criminals simply for existing and perpetuates harmful narratives. It represents a disturbing expansion of genetic surveillance and policing tactics that disproportionately target communities of color. Such practices have no place in a free society and must be stopped immediately. The administration's utter lack of transparency around this invasive program is unacceptable. I urge an immediate end to this unconstitutional DNA collection from immigrants and the destruction of all profiles illegally obtained, especially those of minors. We cannot allow the normalization of such blatant infringements on human rights.
