In my opinion, Trump's shift on this issue ("stop raiding farms and hotels") demonstrates the US needs to have an honest conversation about the role of undocumented immigrants in this country. And who constitutes this population. I'm afraid the rhetoric has already poisoned the well.
SCOOP: The Trump admin has abruptly shifted the focus of its mass deportation campaign, telling ICE officials to largely pause raids and arrests in the agricultural industry, hotels and restaurants, according to an internal email and three officials with knowledge.

Kids are directly certified for free school meals if their household participates in SNAP, but the budget bill will make it harder to sign-up and fund these programs.
Tell our Senators the budget bill's cuts to SNAP are cuts to school meals:

Urgent: Illegal Activity Underway
Many undocumented immigrants file tax returns with the IRS, providing details about their residences, families, employers, and earnings. The IRS has historically encouraged tax compliance by issuing ITINs to those without Social Security numbers.

The U.S. government spent $710 billion in Trump’s first month, an increase from the same period a year prior. Cost-cutting efforts are ineffective, and job losses are occurring without clear justification.

The Chairman is legally required to be an active-duty military officer.
Trump is scared of our officers, knowing full well they will absolutely deny an illegal order!

Important to remind Congress everyday of facts:
1. POTUS immunity to break law, doesn't make it legal. He is still breaking the law.
2. Immunity is only protects against criminal charges in court system.
3. Impeachment is outside this, it's political, and Congress has duty to uphold Constitution.
