Demand cuts to ICE funding and REJECT any proposal to increase funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) through the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 DHS appropriations bill. The Trump administration has targeted immigrant communities since the start of its administration, tearing families apart and subjecting them to cruel and inhumane conditions while in detention. You 🫵 must rein in this cruelty by REJECTING further funds to ICE and the administration to carry out its mass detention and deportation plans. You 🫵 have thus far passed substantial funding — $150 billion for immigration enforcement to target, detain, and deport human beings — including $45 billion for ICE which will be used to detain families and adults at the expense of American families. The additional funds being proposed in the 2026 DHS appropriations bill will only turbocharge and exacerbate the deteriorating conditions in detention centers across the country. DEMAND cuts to ICE funding, STOP poison pill language that will hamper accountability and oversight of ICE, and END the construction of CONCENTRATION CAMPS. Instead, focus on STOPPING the administration's cruel targeting of immigrants, INCREASE mechanisms of transparency and accountability for ICE and CBP, and restore funding for programs that support all communities across the United States.
