John,

Over the weekend, ICE and DHS continued their reign of terror on Minneapolis, murdering ICU nurse Alex Pretti in broad daylight.

ICE’s violent enforcement regime is built on corporate contracts, corporate technology, and corporate infrastructure. Major corporations provide the tools that allow ICE and DHS to conduct raids, surveillance, and mass detention at scale. Without corporate cooperation, this system could not function as it does today.

Americans for Tax Fairness has launched a major corporate accountability campaign exposing five corporations that have supported ICE while benefiting from massive tax giveaways. Amazon, AT&T, Home Depot, Microsoft, and Palantir have collectively received roughly $19 billion a year in tax cuts under Trump’s tax law. Their CEOs alone could have walked away with an estimated $124 million in personal tax windfalls.

Our research lays out the facts, follows the money, and makes corporate complicity impossible to ignore. Your support helps fund the research, reporting, and public pressure needed to hold these corporations accountable.

Rush a donation today to power the fight to expose and hold ICE’s corporate collaborators accountable.

John,

Americans for Tax Fairness has launched a new public accountability project exposing the corporations that profit while ICE terrorizes communities. Masked officers have rammed vehicles, detained citizens, and inflicted harm on our communities with zero accountability. People and families are being traumatized in plain sight. None of this happens without money, technology, infrastructure, and corporate cooperation.

Our new project documents how Amazon, AT&T, Home Depot, Microsoft, and Palantir have supported ICE and DHS operations while simultaneously benefiting from enormous tax giveaways. Together, these corporations receive roughly $19 billion every year in tax cuts under Trump’s tax law. Their CEOs alone could have collectively pocketed an estimated $124 million in personal tax windfalls from those same changes to the tax code.

These companies have continued to secure contracts, sell services, and provide critical support to an immigration enforcement apparatus that is inflicting real harm on real people. These corporations enjoy publicly funded infrastructure, taxpayer-supported research, and preferential treatment in the tax code, then turn around and help power a deportation machine that operates with cruelty and impunity.

Americans for Tax Fairness built this campaign to expose that reality in detail. The money trail is undeniable. Corporate America has spent years benefiting from a system quietly designed to protect the powerful. This project brings the facts into the open and gives the public the tools to demand accountability from companies that claim neutrality while profiting from abuse.

Chip in today to power Americans for Tax Fairness Action Fund’s corporate accountability work and help expose and confront the corporations enabling ICE’s violence.

This campaign exposes a clear pattern across ICE’s corporate collaborators: massive tax windfalls, exploding executive pay, and continued support for federal enforcement operations.

At Microsoft, CEO Satya Nadella received an estimated $978 million in ordinary income between 2018 and 2024. His personal tax cut from Trump’s tax law could total roughly $25 million. Amazon also reaped enormous benefits from Trump’s tax law. In multiple profitable years, Amazon paid little or nothing in federal income taxes while expanding its role as a major government contractor.

Palantir built its business around federal data contracts, including immigration enforcement, while executives collected vast compensation and taxpayers absorbed the cost. AT&T and Home Depot followed the same trajectory. Both benefited from Trump’s tax law, spent heavily on lobbying, and delivered major gains to executives and shareholders while aligning with an administration escalating ICE enforcement.

Across all five corporations, executive pay surged, shareholder payouts climbed, and federal tax bills shrank. These gains were financed by a tax code that cut healthcare and nutrition assistance while protecting corporate profits.

This is only the beginning. We will continue expanding this project, publishing new corporate profiles, updating research, and connecting the dots between tax policy, corporate power, and human harm. The corporations backing ICE depend on public silence. They depend on people looking away. This campaign exists to make sure that does not happen.

Make a contribution today to help us continue exposing the corporations and executives profiting while ICE terrorizes communities.
