We need to
talk about what’s happening in Portland, Oregon.

Trump and his Homeland Security chief Chad Wolf have deployed secret,
unmarked federal officers who are snatching protestors off of the streets
and detaining people without reason for arrest. These untrained federal
officers have already shot one protester and continue to kidnap anyone
they see on the streets without charges.

It’s an unconstitutional abuse of power. This administration has made it
clear they will stop at nothing in this war against protestors and the
Black Lives Matter movement. We will not tolerate these draconian tactics.

[ [link removed] ]We must act before these secret police forces infiltrate all of our
communities. Will you sign our rapid-response petition calling for the
resignation of Homeland Security chief Chad Wolf?

Reports are coming out of Portland that these unmarked officers are
arresting folks without reading their Miranda rights and denying access to
an attorney.

Arresting anyone who disagrees with your political agenda is unacceptable.
In this moment of crisis, Trump is choosing to ignite the flames of
violence and unrest. Police and law enforcement should be working to
protect our rights to free assembly, not attacking peaceful protesters.

When Chad Wolf was asked about possible future plans to deploy more secret
police forces in other cities he responded saying, “I don't need
invitations by the state, state mayors, or state governors to do our job.
We're going to do that, whether they like us there or not.”

Wolf has made it clear he couldn’t care less about our safety or
constitutional rights. He only cares about pleasing Trump and expanding
his power.

[ [link removed] ]That’s why it’s urgent we collect as many signatures as we can for our
emergency petition calling for Chad Wolf’s resignation. We must hold him
accountable for allowing this gross abuse of power.

In solidarity,

Team Ro
