This shook us to our core → Trump’s bill will supercharge mass deportations by funneling $170B to ICE
After weaponizing ICE and terrorizing immigrant communities, Trump has now signed into law the most extensive mass deportation campaign in U.S. history, funded by your taxpayer dollars.
So we’re sounding the alarm because this is a life-or-death situation. With families, workers, recently naturalized citizens, and asylum seekers all at risk, we’re circulating an emergency petition to stop this anti-immigrant crackdown. But we need massive backing from supporters like you to prove overwhelming public backlash before their plans go into effect. Can you sign on right now? »
Here’s what’s happening:
First, Trump threatened to drag us back to one of the darkest chapters in U.S. history, the Mexican Repatriation era, when over a million people were forcibly deported and human rights violations ran rampant.
Then, he signed a $170 billion deportation law, giving ICE more power than ever and the funding to unleash the largest mass deportation campaign this country has ever seen.
Now, we’re watching his plan come into fruition in real time:
- 3,000 arrests a day
- Illegal detention camps for families and kids
- New asylum fees are designed to shut out the poor
- Border wall expansion at triple the cost of his first term.
So we’re fighting back by proving massive backlash amongst Americans because we can’t let this go unanswered. Can we count on you to stand with us to fight back? »
This is not a drill. This law will reshape our immigration system — and our democracy — for generations. We cannot be silent.
