John, did you see our message?
John, this can’t keep happening in our country.
The new video footage of ICE killing yet another person in Minneapolis is horrifying – and an absolutely unmissable call to action. [1]
Now, the President is asking the U.S. Senate to fund his terror campaign to the tune of $10 billion. Our job: make sure senators finally listen to the overwhelming majority of Americans, do their jobs, and tell Trump and ICE: hell no.
Your senator, David McCormick, needs to hear from you now. Can you take action NOW to make sure they know you’re counting on them to do the right thing?
ICE is out of control. Trump’s unaccountable federal agents are:
- Pushing to enter our homes without warrants – a direct attack on our constitutional rights [2]
- Abducting children and reportedly using them as “bait” to lure parents into arrests [3]
- Escalating racial profiling and violence – targeting protesters, civilians, and anyone this administration decides doesn’t belong [4]
Voters across the country are fed up with this lawlessness. Poll after poll shows strong opposition to ICE’s actions. [5]
But last week, seven House Democrats joined nearly every Republican to ignore the American people and pass $10 billion in funding for ICE to terrorize our neighborhoods. [6]
Now the Senate has a choice. They can draw a line, hold this administration accountable, and refuse to fund these abuses – or they can be complicit.
Sen. McCormick needs to hear from you. Can you take action right now?
We’ll be in touch later this week with more action items – but for now, this is the single most important thing you can do right now to change the dangerous course this country is headed down.
Thanks for all you do,
The team at Common Cause
P.S. Once you’ve made your call, if you’re still feeling fired up, please join our phonebank this week to connect with voters like you and help maximize pressure before this week’s ICE funding vote >>
