After an ICE officer killed a 37-year-old woman in Minneapolis, the truth once again had to be dragged into the light. This outcome was inevitable in a system that continues to shower money on an agency that operates without meaningful oversight or restraint. Congress is now racing toward an end-of-January funding deadline, and that moment matters. Budgets are not neutral documents. They decide which harms continue and which stop. In the wake of the shooting, Democratic lawmakers have begun openly questioning why ICE is still being funded as usual. Senator Chris Murphy warned that Democrats should not approve a DHS budget that allows ICE to continue acting outside the law. Representative Pramila Jayapal condemned the agency as violent and unaccountable, while Representative Delia Ramirez made clear that the January 31 continuing resolution is the point where Congress must finally draw a line. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-congress-cut-ice-funding-before-more-lives-are-lost
