Hi,
Trump has a plan to imprison 30,000 migrants at a detention center in
Guantanamo Bay.^1 And his Department of Homeland Security said it’s
already preparing to send more people to the infamous prison.^2
Trump’s goal of deporting 15-20 million people is cruel, impractical, and
extremely costly.^3 Jailing immigrants in Guantanamo is just one expensive
plank of this awful policy and we need Congress to say NO to its funding.

Trump’s mass deportations — including the ICE sweeps that are already
underway — will tear apart countless families and disrupt communities
across the country. Deporting millions of our family, friends, and
neighbors will not make our communities safe or help people thrive.
Trump is even threatening federal prosecutors and state and local
officials if they refuse to help him carry out his mass deportation
plans.^4
Our lawmakers need to stand firm to protect immigrant communities from
arbitrary detention and deportation.
