If we don't act now, Los Angeles will not be the only target.


ACLU Supporter, in just the past week, the Trump administration has aggressively arrested people protesting ICE's cruelty, deployed thousands of federalized National Guard troops to Los Angeles, and now has sent hundreds of active duty Marines there, too.

And he's threatened that it won't end here. On Sunday, Donald Trump said, "We're gonna have troops everywhere." To be clear: If we don't stop this abuse of power now, Los Angeles will not be the only target.

President Trump is trying to write himself a blank check to use the military to stifle dissent and scare us into silence. It's unnecessary, it's dangerous, and it's wrong.

We must act before more harm is done. Send a message to your Congress members now demanding they call on the Trump administration to withdraw the military from our communities and rescind the deployment order. <[link removed]>

Act Now <[link removed]>

Federalized National Guard and Marines should have no role in policing protests in our civilian communities.

These Marines don't have anywhere near the kind of training required to police protests while respecting people's constitutional rights – and using our troops to do so endangers civilians and service members alike. And turning armed military forces against people protesting ICE is flat out undemocratic and contrary to our values.

This is a dramatic escalation. We cannot be a country that puts troops on our streets to silence protesters. We cannot let President Trump abuse his power and violate our right to speak out.

Congress can and must act now to rescind President Trump's order, call back the troops, and protect our First Amendment rights. Join us in calling on your representatives to act now. <[link removed]>

Thanks for taking action with us,
