The House of Representatives is considering a bill that would limit the Trump administration's ability to exploit state and local police to carry out mass deportations.
Tell Congress to vote yes on this bill and protect our communities.

End ICE's Dangerous 287(g) Program
ICE's 287(g) program turns local police into a weapon for ICE, meaning more racial profiling, more fear in our communities, and more people in immigrant detention. Tell Congress to end it now.

Fun fact about Nigeria: they recently shut down a lot of car battery recycling outfits to conduct tests.
Tests to study the large amount of lead being let off by these companies, poisoning the local populations.
These companies? US automakers that refuse to start certification programs.

@kaine.senate.gov enough of the status quo bullshit. The only acceptable answer to Welker’s question is yes. They needed to be held accountable yesterday. You’re allowing the illegality and immorality to continue by doing nothing.
Once when we wanted to show the ineffectual dithering of The Good Place Committee, we had one of them say, "There are rules, procedures. This is The Good Place -- we can't just *do stuff.*" We almost didn't include it, because we thought it was a little on the nose.
WELKER: Massie and Khanna say they are looking at options including impeachment and contempt for DOJ officials. Would you support those steps?

Breaking News: Workers began adding President Trump’s name to the Kennedy Center, despite no action by Congress to legally rename it. This sparked outrage among the Kennedy family, since it was built to be a living memorial to the 35th president.

Shockingly, this bill would have failed were it not for the 3 Democrat defections.
Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.
3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.
4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.
It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.
Story to come.
