<[link removed]> <[link removed]>Friend,

Right now, Bend the Arc leaders are on Capitol Hill with the largest immigrant justice coalition in the country, Home is Here, to meet with members of Congress and demand action.

Congress needs to fund the government by this Friday — including deciding how much money the Department of Homeland Security will have to carry out Trump’s plans of mass detention and deportation.

While immigrants and allies flood the capital, we're flooding their phone lines: Call your Senators now and demand NO to funding Trump’s mass deportations. <[link removed]>

<[link removed]>CALL YOUR SENATORS NOW <[link removed]>The call tool is simple to use and includes a script. Fill out the form to find your Senator and have your phone ready.

Trump just announced that nowhere will be safe for undocumented immigrants and their families — not even houses of worship, schools, or hospitals.1

Can you imagine a neighbor being ripped away during Shabbat services? Or a fellow student disappearing from class?

Our job between now and Trump’s inauguration is to use every lever of power we have to protect immigrants and other targets of MAGA’s dangerous agenda.

Right now, during the budget process, call your Senator and demand no money for Trump’s deportation machine. <[link removed]>

To spread fear and justify his cruelty, we know Trump will exploit deadly conspiracy theories like the so-called “Great Replacement Theory.” He doesn’t care that his words and actions will increase violence against all of us, including Jews. He just wants to build a country for himself and his cronies.

Right now is the time to show we will not be divided, and that we will never stop fighting. We are stronger together. Thank you for taking action.

Rabbi Jason Kimelman-Block
Washington Director, Bend the Arc

PS: If you live in DC, we share your frustration that you don’t have a senator to call and are advocating for DC Statehood too. We hope you’ll use this tool to call Majority Leader Schumer in his leadership capacity instead.
