Friend,

Earlier this week, news broke that ICE has been forcefully sterilizing immigrants in detention centers -- a hallmark of genocide that's internationally recognized by the United Nations as a crime against humanity.

Time and time again, ICE has proven to be a cruel, unaccountable agency, rooted in racism, sexism, and a reckless disregard for the safety and well-being of immigrants and refugees. On top of the chilling allegations of mass hysterectomies, ICE has a well documented track record of abuse, neglect, and misconduct from guards sexually assaulting and harassing detainees to employees refusing to test and treat detainees with COVID-19. There must be a full reckoning with the torture and cruelty this administration has caused immigrants -- and that starts with abolishing ICE.

Will you join the movement to abolish ICE right now by adding your name next to mine?

I SUPPORT ABOLISHING ICE: [link removed]

Since the Bush administration founded ICE in 2002, ICE has established itself as an agency designed to hurt, dehumanize, and terrorize immigrant and refugee communities. It has only become increasingly militarized and unaccountable over the years, and the movement to abolish it is grounded in the goal of creating an immigration system based on humanity and compassion. As the pandemic only exacerbates the unsafe conditions in ICE detention centers, it's clearer than ever that the time to completely dismantle ICE is now.

ICE has proven itself to be beyond reform. Add your name right now to support the Abolish ICE movement: [link removed]

Thank you for speaking out.
