ICE has gone too far - It's time for lawmakers to take action.
We are calling on elected officials to pass reforms to address ICE's unaccountable actions:
❌DON'T assist ICE.
❌DON'T turn police into ICE agents
.
✅DO fund legal help to fight deportations.

Massachusetts leaders @markey.senate.gov, @pressley.house.gov and @repmcgovern.bsky.social visited Rümeysa Öztürk in detention.
What they saw was denial of medical care and unsafe conditions - Rümeysa's detention is cruel and unconstitutional, and she must come home.

The leaked federal FY26 budget for HHS eliminates the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Promotion. This center funds heart disease, stroke, diabetes, cancer, and other chronic conditions. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the US. static1.squarespace.com/static/606e6...

Donald Trump Built a National Debt So Big (Even Before the Pandemic) That It’ll Weigh Down the Economy for Years
