Community Call January 21: Tell Congress We Need ICE Out for Good
January 21 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm CST
Join the national community call with the National Immigrant Justice Center, Amnesty International, National Immigration Law Center, Detention Watch Network, Public Citizen, National Partnership for New Americans, CWS, Human Rights First, and Fair Immigration Reform Movement to demand Congress cut funding for ICE!
As we all remain horrified by the images out of Minnesota and continue to see our immigrant family, friends, and neighbors live in fear, we must come together in community and stand against the cruelty. Just this week both the House and Senate appropriations committees released bill text that would increase ICE’s budget for Fiscal Year 26, adding more funds for the deadly mass detention and deportation system. Congress already handed DHS a windfall of $170 billion dollars to supersize its deportation force and detention apparatus. Thanks to this blank check, ICE says it already has enough money to detain over 100,000 people at a time and contract 80,000 new beds. 2025 was the deadliest year ever for people in ICE detention, and six people have died in ICE detention just this month.
Join us Wednesday, January 21 at 5pm ET/4pm CT to hear how to take action and tell your members of Congress to stop enabling ICE and Border Patrol’s cruelty and instead invest in our communities.
