Hi,

Trump isn’t just trying to ram another Supreme Court Justice nomination through the Senate. He also wants the Senate to make acting DHS Secretary Chad Wolf permanent.

If that name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s the guy who sent unmarked federal agents into Portland a few months ago to snatch protesters off the street.¹ Chad Wolf shouldn’t have this job at all, let alone have his job become permanent.

Even just the act of sending secret police into a US city to capture protesters in unmarked vans and take them to undisclosed locations is abhorrent. But unfortunately Chad Wolf has a long rap sheet of atrocities.

Chad Wolf lied to Congress² about his involvement in separating children from the families at the border. He also refused to follow a Supreme Court order to reopen DACA applications for Dreamers.³

And recently, reporters found out that under his leadership, DHS awarded $6 million in government contracts to a firm where his wife is an executive.⁴

The Senate can’t just roll over and give Trump everything he wants. Chad Wolf should be out of a job, not installed permanently.

Sign the petition: Tell the Senate to reject Chad Wolf’s nomination!

Thanks for taking action,

Tihi and the team at Demand Progress
