Tell Your Senators: No funding for ICE or CBP!
On January 24, 2026, a Border Patrol officer killed Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse, during Trump’s federal invasion of Minneapolis.1 His murder comes just weeks after an ICE agent shot and killed Renée Good.2
Congress is preparing to vote on the FY2026 Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Appropriations bill. If passed, this bill would add $400 million more for ICE detention, $370 million more for enforcement operations, and expand funding without accountability or reforms.3
ICE and CBP are operating in American communities with increasing violence, secrecy, and impunity. Congress has already given these agencies historic funding increases, and this bill would reward their deadly violence with more money.
Take action now: Tell your Senators to vote “NO” on the FY2026 DHS funding bill and halt all funding to ICE and CBP.
