In the wake of #ICEstapo murdering 37yo emergency room nurse #AlexPretti in #Minneapolis, centrist Nevada Senators Rosen and Cortez-Masto have said they will not support any DHS appropriations bill with ICE funding still. (h/t @heidilifeldman)

So now an excellent time to contact your Senators (especially Dems) to follow suit. @indivisibleteam has a brand-new online form that makes it easy. #ICE #FuckICE #USpol #Trump

Tell your senators to rein in ICE NOW

On Wednesday, January 7, Renee Good was killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Then, on January 24, Border Patrol killed Alex Pretti. These deaths were a direct result of unchecked violence, impunity, and abuse carried out by federal immigration enforcement agencies against members of our communities. And yet, the DHS appropriations bill that just passed the House would hand MORE funding to ICE and Border Patrol, and do little to rein in their abuses. So we are calling on the Senate to reject the current bill, and withhold their votes from any legislation funding DHS unless it: Strengthens restrictions on ICE and Border Patrol’s ability to conduct dragnet arrest operations and target people based on their race, language or accent, place of employment, or location at the time of the apprehension; Ends Border Patrol deployment to our cities and rejects its ever-expanding mandate in immigration enforcement; and Limits DHS's reprogramming and transfer authority, including specifically preventing reprogramming and transferring funds for detention. Use this tool to instantly contact your senators with a clear message: Protect our communities by reining in ICE NOW. The email to your Senators:
