Petition to Congress: We urge you to oppose all funding for ICE. No more taxpayer dollars should go towards fueling ICE violence and inhumane, abusive ICE detention centers.
|
Trump and the GOP advanced their plan to pass $70 billion in new funding for ICE and Border Patrol (CBP).
Trump has deployed his far-right security forces all over the country to terrorize communities, conduct mass arrests, fill abusive detention centers, and deport tens of thousands of people. Rep. Ilhan Omar condemned sending billions more in funding for ICE and CBP’s "inhumane, illegal, reprehensible actions."
Trump set a June 1 deadline for his MAGA loyalists in Congress to pass this additional ICE funding. Our lawmakers must reject this funding plan and stop the agency's lawless arrest, detention, and deportation program.
Sign the petition: Block funding for ICE — say NO to more taxpayer dollars for Trump's violent security forces!
Congress gave ICE a whopping $75 billion last year — a mountain of cash that has allowed agents to continue their violent operations without additional funding this year.
“We have seen agents execute U.S. citizens in the streets, snatch mothers from their children in our communities, and use excessive force against peaceful protesters," said Rep. John Larson while opposing additional funding and calling last year's $75 billion appropriation for ICE a "slush fund."
Trump's Republican lackeys in Congress will continue doing everything they can to meet his deadline and fund ICE. Our lawmakers must oppose increasing Trump's slush fund for violent mass deportations.
Sign the petition: Block funding for ICE and CBP now!
