John, 

ICE, which is short for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
Agency, is responsible for spreading the Coronavirus worldwide, detaining
and deporting US Citizens, and forced medical procedures on immigrants
under their care. Check out these headlines.

though. President Biden has nominated Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez to
run ICE. Sheriff Gonzalez is an experienced law enforcement official who
sharply criticized Donald Trump’s racist and dangerous immigration
policies. When elected Harris County Sheriff in 2016, Gonzalez immediately
canceled a federal partnership that authorized sheriff’s deputies to
enforce immigration laws, ending an agreement that had been in place since
2008.

Here’s the thing, ICE was created in the aftermath of 9/11, along with the
rush for the Patriot Act and the approval of torture by the Bush
administration. With its unethical, un-American track record, it’s
possible there is no way to turn ICE around, but there is some hope that
Ed Gonzalez can do the job.

the Biden administration to clean ICE up or shut ICE down. America doesn’t
need a law enforcement agency that doesn’t follow the law. Help us build

Advocates, like Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, who have called to abolish
ICE, have often stated reform was impossible “because the agency lacks
adequate oversight.”

Now, once the Senate confirms Gonzalez, the agency may finally get the
oversight it needs to do the job right, protecting civil rights and
following the rule of law.

Time is short. The window for proving it’s possible to reform will close
quickly.

Director Gonzalez will have to move quickly and take action immediately.
That’s why we’re calling on Director Gonzalez and the Biden administration
to work together to clean it up or shut it down now!

U.S Citizens should never be at risk of being detained and deported by
ICE.

Immigrants in ICE custody must never be forced into hysterectomies or
other medical procedures against their will.

And the United States should never have let ICE spread the Coronavirus
around the world.

None of those things should've happened, yet they did. We’re counting on
President Biden and Director Gonzalez to deliver real change, but you and
I know it won’t happen unless we demand it.

Thank you for joining the campaign to clean it up or shut it down.
