Please keep contacting your congressional representatives in both houses to support greatly reduce funding for ICE & its authoritarian policies. Loss of funding, plus the work Democracy Forward is doing is Justice for all detainees & a win for the rule of Law & Justice and freedom for all of us!
BREAKING: We won a court order requiring DHS to immediately restore meaningful access to lawyers for people detained at immigration detention centers in Minneapolis.
Access to a lawyer is not optional; it is a fundamental right. We will keep fighting to defend it.

What Simon is purposing is awesome. Small groups in both houses of congress need to break up in several small groups & each group work on a specific policy, illegal action by this administration and flood the Republicans with these bills. As well as getting State Governor, AGs, Sec. of States in.
I think Democrats should start using focused ad hoc bicameral working groups to attack and undermine Trump’s illiberalism - the tariffs, his unprecedented corruption, is selling out of Ukraine and Europe to Putin, his undermining of our elections, etc.
Democrats in Congress need to immediately appoint an adhoc bicameral working group to organize civil society and the legal community to stop Trump's ongoing desecration of our national monuments and the Capital. This has gone too far. Congress must step up and fight.

This is very a very positive court verdict that this president can not by pass cogress or the states for voter registration. Especially great for overseas military personnel!!!

Agree. Cogress must end the contracts & decrease ICE funding for only criminal immigrants. That should require 1 detention facility & the rest should be closed.
Leading American corporations — including Amazon, Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.
Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.

Illinois is one of the few states in the middle of the country that protects the right to comprehensive reproductive healthcare.

If Senate Republicans refuse to strip out the DHS bill to put real constraints on ICE — and hold hostage the vast majority of government funding — then Republicans are complicit in the chaos and own the potential government shutdown.

Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:
DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

Great to find out 20 billion bailout for Argentina is on hold . With congress in session for 2 weeks in December hope there is a bill that diverts the 5 billion still on the table for Argentina to health care! As well diverting DHS/ICE money to support Ukraine!!
After I called out the big banks for adding ANOTHER $20 billion to Trump’s Argentina bailout, their plan is on ice.
But they are still exploring a $5 billion loan – potentially guaranteed by U.S. taxpayers.
No bailout for Argentina’s rich hedge fund investors.

No wonder our former military & intelligence congressional Senators & Representatives made a video reminding the military that they do not have to follow illegal orders that go against the US Constitution. Accountability, Transparency & Truth matters in a Democracy. Not lies & corruption for ego!
If you want to know why Hegseth is panicking about reminders that there is accountably for giving or carrying out illegal orders, it’s likely because he knows he has given illegal orders to murder people.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.
