Kristi Noem is out of control

This isn't a democracy.

Pamela, how the hell does Kristi Noem still have a job? Under Noem's watch, ICE is harassing, terrorizing, and even killing our neighbors. Then, she goes on TV and lies about the victims to cover for her untrained, masked thugs. When our government abuses its power, violates our rights, then desperately tries to cover it up – anyone who's paying attention is going to lose trust. And while Kristi Noem is far from the only Trump official doing that right now, there's simply no way she can keep running the Department of Homeland Security. She's got to go, yesterday. Common Cause members like you clearly agree – over 80,000 of you have spoken out, and thousands called their senators. And already, we've turned the tide in a major way – after the Senate refused to advance DHS funding that was almost a done deal just a few weeks ago. Pamela, this win wouldn't have happened without your persistent advocacy. But if we're honest, it's the bare minimum. We need to be real about the situation: the people running our country want to roll back a half-century or more of social progress. And because our civil rights and our Constitution are an obstacle to that, they've decided to throw them out wholesale. We can't let them do it. We can't let this become our new normal. That's why we're not taking our foot off the gas until our demands are met: Noem and her cronies need to resign, their secret police need to go home, the federal government needs to fully cooperate with state and local investigations of ICE's lawless tactics, and we need real reform and accountability at the Department of Homeland Security. These are big – but important – demands. And to get them done, we're mobilizing from coast to coast, calling members of Congress to demand action, and spreading the word of exactly what's at stake if we don't stop our own government from terrorizing us. We're ready to go big – but how big we can go depends on how much we can raise from Common Cause members like you. When we all work together, we can accomplish incredible things.
