Friend,
The U.S. Senate just passed a funding bill that guts SNAP, Medicaid, and student aid while giving $150 billion to fund ICE raids and mass deportations.
And as Congress funnels billions into detention and cruelty, a terrifying new symbol of this agenda is rising out of the Florida Everglades: a massive new facility already being called “Alligator Alcatraz.”
It’s not a conspiracy theory. It’s a real, taxpayer-funded detention center designed to hold 5,000 people — and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is using funds from FEMA to help pay for it.
Enough. We’re calling on you to help us fight back. Will you donate now to stand with working families and advocate for the essential housing, health care, and education programs our communities need?
We’re witnessing an alarming pattern of federal funds being diverted to propel a mass deportation and detention agenda. If this bill becomes law, ICE will receive 20 times what it usually gets while cutting $880 billion in healthcare. This money could be funding accessible medical care, affordable housing, and food on the table for countless working families — but it’s fueling cruelty instead.
From the budget bill to Florida’s new detention center, millions of people will be left uninsured and at risk of poverty, hunger, and denial of federal assistance after an emergency — all because vital resources are being stolen from our communities to expand the detention and deportation of our immigrant neighbors.
This isn’t policy. It’s an assault on our lives, our communities, and our future.
But we’re not powerless, team. Together, we have the people, the movement, and the moral clarity to stand up and fight back.
