NO to DHS and ICE Funding

To: Sen. Merkley, Sen. Wyden

From: A constituent in Seaside, OR

January 29

Below I am quoting Josh Marshall from Talking Points Memo. Regarding the funding of DHS and ICE, just say NO! These are his words to the Senate, with which I fully agree. “We won’t stand for any of this. We don’t want masked secret police preying on American communities.” “You want our votes? You solve it. You tell us how you’re going to clean up your mess and the chaos and bloodshed you’ve caused.” The public really, really doesn’t like this. Republican politicians are looking for ways to get out from under it. I don’t think Democrats need to do Republicans’ work for them. It’s a moment when the job of the opposition is simply to say, “No!””
