I am alarmed by President Trump’s Mass Deportation Program, which targets people making meaningful contributions to our country (like veterans, mothers, farm workers, and scientists) and imposes extreme arrest quotas on ICE agents. This policy is not about public safety; it is a politically motivated assault on immigrant communities that disrupts families, spreads fear, and undermines the values upon which our country was built. It interferes with freedom of worship, chills free speech, and harms children.
Reports indicate that less than 10% of those detained have serious criminal convictions, demonstrating that this program is not focused on dangerous individuals but rather on casting a wide net to intimidate and punish entire communities. I urge you to speak out against this inhumane policy, demand an immediate halt to the mass deportation campaign, and support humane, transparent immigration enforcement that prioritizes public safety over political retribution.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter.
