An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Release ICE Detainees and Shut Down Detention Centers Now

134 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!

Release people held in ICE detention centers immediately and ensure they receive medical care now. These facilities are not safe, and every day of delay is a day someone suffers a preventable harm. This is not a complicated ask — it is a basic human rights demand. ICE detention has a documented record of medical neglect, abuse, and preventable deaths. People are being held in conditions that would be unacceptable for anyone. You have the power to act on this, and the time to do it is right now — not after another investigation, not after another hearing. Shut these facilities down.
