Call To Action: ICE Out For Good
Call Your Reps
The Trump regime is terrorizing our communities with brutal immigration enforcement campaigns designed to test the limits of executive power and the nation’s willingness to stand up against Trump’s power grab. Masked federal agents are teargassing babies and pastors, kidnapping our neighbors and shipping them off to foreign torture prisons, and killing innocent people. This pattern of unchecked violence and abuse by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the Border Patrol, and other federal law enforcement agencies must end. Call you representatives and let them know to how you feel, we have provided a simple call script below for you to use:
__________________________
Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I’m a constituent from [Your City, State].
I'm calling to urge [REP/SENATOR NAME] to refuse to vote for any appropriations bill for the Department of Homeland Security that fails to rein in ICE.
Renee Good’s killing on January 7, is part of a broader pattern of unchecked violence, impunity, and abuse carried out by federal immigration enforcement agencies against our communities.
We can't wait around while ICE harms more people. [REP/SENATOR NAME] must push for an appropriations bill that puts serious restrictions on ICE, ends its dragnet raids, and doesn’t add a penny to its already bloated budget.
Senator Schumer 202-224-6542
Senator Gillibrand 202-224-4451
Representative Lawler 202-225-6506
