Earlier today, Trump made it clear there's so much money in DHS' Big Ugly Bill slush fund that he wants to use it to pay TSA agents. That means the regime could have resumed TSA funding all along. Trump just wanted chaos in airports to pressure Congress into giving more money to his secret police. 🧵

This. THIS is the future we all deserve, y'all. The future that rich white people have always been stealing from us.

Trump is flailing in this DHS funding fight because Democrats are unified in opposition. We must keep the pressure on our Members of Congress to demand major reforms from the regime — especially since this fight could come down to what happens over the next 24 hours. Contact your Members of Congress and urge them not to vote for a single additional penny for ICE and Border Patrol: https://act.indivisible.org/sign/ice-out-for-good/?source=mastodon
Tell Your Members of Congress: Halt the ICE Terror Machine

On January 24, federal forces with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. This was just over two weeks after the killing of Renee Good. These killings are a direct result of unchecked violence, impunity, and abuse carried out by federal immigration enforcement agencies against members of our communities. Congress is currently negotiating funding for DHS, which includes ICE and Border Patrol. We are demanding our Members of Congress draft a new bill that, at minimum: Ensures there is not one penny more for ICE or CBP Pulls ICE and Border Patrol out of Minneapolis and the rest of our communities Prevents ICE or Border Patrol enforcement at designated ‘sensitive locations’ such as houses of worship, day cares, and hospitals Restricts ICE and Border Patrol’s ability to target people based on their race, language or accent, place of employment, or location at the time of the apprehension Ends the administration’s unlawful practice of warrantless home entry and arrests Use this tool to instantly contact your Members of Congress with a clear message: Protect our communities by reining in ICE NOW.
