The Senate will vote on ICE funding tomorrow. Please call your senators now at 202-224-3121 and say no more funding for ICE.
The current Department of Homeland Security appropriations bill includes an extra $10 billion for ICE, in addition to the $75 billion provided in the Big Ugly Bill.
No more!

At the White House, there is infighting behind closed doors, ego clashes, backstabbing, and carefully orchestrated leaks. But the fact is that Stephen Miller is spreading false information about Alex Pretti, turning the regime into a political clown show.

Law enforcement officers have always been unmasked in this country until ICE started wearing them last year.
*That* is the departure from norms. *That* is the step too far.

Tillis says he opposes ICE being barred from wearing masks: "I've seen people dox me. I've seen people take pictures and identify law enforcement officers and then put their families at risk. So, I think that's a step too far."

Republicans' Big Ugly Bill gave Trump $190 billion for DHS, including $75 billion for ICE and $65 billion for CBP.
That's money Republicans stripped from rural hospitals and helping people afford health care.
Congress should claw it back and put serious restraints on DHS.
