Defund ICE & End the Detention Centers

**Defund ICE Detention — End This Abhorrent System Now** Defund ICE and end immigration detention immediately. Liam is a child — a child — being held in what can only be called a concentration camp, and you have the power to stop funding this. Vote against every budget that allocates a single dollar to ICE detention operations. What is happening in these facilities is not enforcement. It is the mass detention of human beings, including children, without the due process protections this country claims to stand for. Conditions are dangerous, inhumane, and in some cases deadly. Locking up a child in these circumstances is abhorrent, and continuing to fund this system makes you directly complicit in that harm. Redirect those resources to community-based immigration processing, legal aid, and case management. I will be watching your vote, and so will everyone else paying attention to what is being done in our name.
