An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Redirect Congressional Slush Fund to Epstein Survivors and ICE Detainees

38 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

Stop sitting on that congressional slush fund and redirect it to the people who actually need it: survivors of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse and individuals wrongfully detained by ICE. These are real people with real harms, and there is money available right now to address them. Use it. Epstein's survivors have waited years for meaningful restitution while institutions that enabled him faced little accountability. ICE detainees, many of whom have never been charged with a crime, are held in conditions that have drawn repeated legal challenges. Both groups represent government failures — and government money should go toward making them whole. Keeping that fund intact while these people go uncompensated is a choice, and it's the wrong one. I want a clear commitment: introduce or co-sponsor legislation to reallocate those funds directly to compensate Epstein survivors and provide relief to ICE detainees who have suffered harm in custody. The money exists. The need is documented. There is no defensible reason to wait.
