No more funds for ICE, let them lay in the wet bed they made

To: Sen. Padilla, Rep. Carbajal, Sen. Schiff

From: A verified voter in Lompoc, CA

June 17, 2025

ICE is $1 billion over budget and running a mass deportation operation that is fiscally reckless, morally corrupt, and driven by political theater—not public safety. Congress must not reward this chaos with a bailout. Trump’s immigration plan, written by Stephen Miller, is about optics and cruelty. It targets working families—not violent criminals. It drains public resources to chase headlines and stoke fear. And now, after overspending without authorization, ICE is demanding a $75 billion lifeline? Absolutely not. This agency should be held accountable, not given more taxpayer dollars to expand a failing and inhumane agenda. No emergency stunts. No budget gimmicks. No backdoor funding. Do not approve one more cent for ICE. Let it run out of money, and let this disgraceful operation come to an end.
