Preschooler in Concentration Camp in the U.S.A

Release preschooler Liam Conejo Ramos to his family, out of the concentration camp. He is a preschooler. A clueless young child, in a severely dangerous position. This is inhumane. You all will be held responsible if you don't get him out.

Vote Against DHS Funding Without Civil Rights Protections

I am writing to urge you to vote against the Department of Homeland Security funding agreement that was reached on Thursday.

Do not pass any spending bills until ICE is disbanded

I have just read that the Democratic Senate caucus is ready to rubber stamp five of the spending bills and a CR on the DHS bill. I do not understand what has to happen for Democratic leadership to understand that giving this administration *any* money at this point is collaboration. Last weekend I m

Detained Children

What are you doing about the detained children? These children are innocent and deserve better than what the US is providing them. We are only as humane as we treat the least of those in our custody. What are you doing about the detained children?

I will write everyday. I intend to annoy or shame you into DOING SOMETHING. Absolutely, 1000% do not fall for this administration removing Bovino as some kind of quid pro quo for passing the DHS bill. VOTE NO. Impeach the felon and his entire administration today. Shut the whole government down unti

No short-term funding for ICE. Zero. None. Nada.

Impeach Kristi Noem

I was unable to reach your office today and and was unable to leave a voicemail mail. Please treat this email as you would a phone call. I am extremely upset and angry about the ICE raids, detentions, and killings and strongly urge Senator Durbin to support the impeachment of Kristi Noem as Secr

I’ll be sending LETTERS to you everyday until you start DOING SOMETHING. I intend to annoy and shame you into doing your job. Here are things the Democrats can do to stop Trump without power, so stop whining and asking for us to vote for you again, when you’re not using these to the utmost. 1) QUORU

Do Not Fund the Targeting of U.S. Citizens

I am writing as a deeply concerned constituent regarding the removal of language from the DHS funding bill that previously barred the deportation of U.S. citizens. The reported involvement of Stephen Miller in removing this safeguard is alarming and signals a dangerous expansion of government power.

From a constituent in Champaign, IL

Trump is poised to use ICE as a tool for voter suppression. Establishing them as willing to use violence and then positioning them near polling locations would be a highly efficient method for preventing many populations from voting. Congress must act now to introduce measures into the appropriation

To protect the marginalized, use the wisdom of the Anti-Federalists.

Our history holds the key to our future. It’s time to take a cue from the Anti-Federalists who gave us the Bill of Rights. Rights based on Court interpretations are too fragile. As we’ve seen with Roe, what is "interpreted" can be "erased." We must move beyond temporary rulings. We need explicit, wr

URGENT - ICE Accountability & In-Custody Deaths

I write to urge immediate congressional action and robust oversight of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
