John,

Remember those terrifying images we saw of children, separated from their parents, left in cages like animals? An ICE detention center is one of the worst possible places for people to be trapped in during this pandemic — no masks, no hand sanitizer, and certainly no space to social distance.

Over 3,180 immigrants have tested positive for COVID-19 in ICE custody — and that number is only growing. We must take action — immigrants and refugees are welcome here.

Chuy is fighting against Trump’s anti-immigrant policies in Congress, but we need your help to keep organizing and growing our voting power to stop Trump and his allies in November. Sign on now and join our petition to end ICE's inhumane practices >>>

Last week, Onoval Perez-Montufa, a 51-year-old immigrant from Mexico, died of COVID while in ICE custody. Onoval had a family and loved ones. He didn’t deserve to die. But thousands of detainees in ICE custody are testing positive for COVID-19.

The life-threatening conditions of ICE detention camps were inhumane before there was a deadly virus involved. Now ICE officers are letting immigrants needlessly suffer and die without any protection against COVID.

This is not what America stands for and we must fight back against these hateful and dangerous policies. Sign our petition to fight back against ICE >>>

One detainee said, “This is inhumane. You don’t treat humans like this. You don’t treat dogs like this. They don’t care if you die.”

Together, we will fight to stop this. Thank you for taking action.
