An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Defund ICE and CBP, Shut Down Detention Centers, Release Detainees Now

113 so far! Let’s get to 250 signers!

Vote no on any budget that funnels more money to ICE and CBP, and work immediately to defund and dismantle both agencies. The Senate's vote-a-rama already allocated $140 billion to these agencies, and now there's a push for an additional $70 billion on top of that. That is not border security — that is a blank check for mass detention and abuse, and I want you to block every dollar of it. People are being held in detention facilities without adequate medical care. That is not a policy disagreement — that is a human rights crisis happening right now on American soil. Every detainee must be released and provided proper medical attention immediately. No more delays, no more bureaucratic excuses. I expect you to use every legislative tool available to make that happen.
