Dear John,
A possible government shutdown is coming down to one clear choice: whether Congress will keep writing blank checks for unchecked immigration enforcement.
We are saying this plainly and directly: Not another penny, not another dime for DHS unless there are firm limits, real oversight, and real accountability. Congress must protect our communities—not fund harm.
This is the moment when constituent pressure matters most. Senators count calls. Staff log every message. When the phones light up, lawmakers move.
Call the U.S. Senate Switchboard and Demand Accountability
☎️ 202-224-3121
Ask to be connected to your U.S. Senators. Call both senators.
(If you reach voicemail, leave a message—those are counted and recorded.)
How to make your call in 60 seconds
Dial ☎️: 202-224-3121
- Say: “Please connect me to Senator [Last Name].”
- When connected: give your name + city (and ZIP if asked).
- Deliver the message below. Keep it clear and firm.
- Hang up and call your other Senator right away.
What to say (voicemail or staff)
My name is ___, I’m a constituent from ___, and I urge you to oppose any ICE or DHS funding that lacks real oversight and protections. Congress must protect our communities, not fund harm. Thank you.
Optional add-on (if you have another 10 seconds)
- “Will the Senator commit to voting NO on any DHS/ICE funding package without enforceable oversight and accountability?”
- “Please record my position and let me know the Senator’s stance.”
After you call
- Forward this email to five friends or family members and ask them to call too.
- Post the number ☎️ (202-224-3121) in a group chat.
- Encourage others to identify themselves as constituents and call both Senators.
Every call is logged. Volume matters. Pressure works.
In Solidarity,

Juan Proaño CEO
