An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Excellent movie hook, terrible headline: ICE is dangerous and out of control

4 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

You are allowing a dangerously undertrained federal force to expand its power over Americans—and pretending not to see the consequences. ICE has slashed training, lowered standards, and racked up a record of abuse, misconduct, and outright disregard for the law. And instead of pulling it back, you are pushing it further—into roles it was never qualified to perform, from aggressive street enforcement to even discussions of replacing TSA agents. That is not law enforcement. That is negligence. Even more alarming, ICE’s power is already being weaponized for personal gain—as seen in the reported involvement of Paolo Zampoli using ICE leverage in a custody dispute. That should terrify anyone who believes in equal justice. A federal agency that can be bent to serve private interests is not just broken—it is dangerous. This is how civil liberties erode: not all at once, but through your silence while unqualified forces are handed more authority than they can responsibly wield. You fund this. You oversee this. And if you fail to stop it, you own it. Act now—or be complicit.
