For weeks now, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding bill continues to be negotiated. Congress missed the deadline to pass a DHS bill, and now we are in a partial shutdown. It is imperative that our demands be met and that our families be protected.
We need you to continue making calls to Congress, urging them to vote NOT on any DHS funding bill or package until:
No more dollars for ICE, CBP, or detention centers.
Repeal of the $170 billions handed to ICE and CBP through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), and redirect those funds back to community needs.
ICE out of our airports.
Free all the children held in immigration detention.
Stop immigration enforcement based on racial profiling, warrantless arrests, and at sensitive locations.
Ensure every detainee in immigration detention has access to bond hearings, comprehensive medical care, parole for those with high medical needs, and unrestricted access and oversight by Members of Congress.
This fight is about ICE and CBP’s lawlessness and the 44 deaths of immigrants and U.S. Citizens at the hands of ICE and CBP. Last summer, Congress passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1), allocating $170 billion to DHS and other agencies to dramatically increase immigration detention and enforcement over the next four years. ICE and CBP received $85 billion and $70 billion, respectively. The bill included minimal oversight on agency spending. As a result, ICE and CBP are now the highest-funded law enforcement agencies in the U.S., with budgets exceeding the annual military spending of 23 countries. Under the current proposed DHS funding bill, ICE will still get $5 billion, with little to no reforms to ICE and CBP enforcement.
We urge lawmakers to reject any spending deal that bankrolls harm, and to those who voted in favor of dollars for enforcement, know that WE WILL NOT FORGET.
