An Open Letter

To: Rep. Ross, Sen. Budd, Sen. Tillis

From: A constituent in Raleigh, NC

January 20

Please do not provide more funding for ICE. ICE continues to murder us, shoot at us, injure us, terrorize us, and intimidate us. No one is safe. ICE goes after citizens and others here legally, non-criminals, women, children, infants, the elderly, veterans, and the disabled. ICE is attacking us without provocation. They are attacking families coming home from their kid's basketball games and driving home from school or work. WE THE PEOPLE ARE NOT THE DOMESTIC TERRORISTS. ICE IS THE TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. ICE is Trump's Gestapo. Congress, please rein in ICE. We aren't safe. Your job is to keep us safe and to do what is best for our country. Being terrorized by Trump's "brown shirts", having to drive around with our "papers", watching ICE terrorize us in our neighborhoods, our schools, our places of work, in hospitals and courthouses, is not what is best for our country. No one is safe. That includes your families and loved ones, your neighbors and friends. Congress, do not further fund ICE. Remove ICE from our streets, provide proper training and background checks, insist they show their faces, their IDs, and their warrants, and insist they do not have immunity from injuring us or worse, killing us. Congress, no more ICE, no more funding, no more Gestapo.
