STOP ICE'S BLOODSHED
​​
Demand Congress stop funding ICE's bloodshed!
​
ICE and Border Patrol are part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which is currently funded only through January 30.
The new funding bill that's currently being written is our opportunity to put significant restrictions on ICE and ensure it doesn't get a single penny more to enable its brutality.
This bill cannot pass without Dem votes in the Senate, so we have real leverage here. But we need to act fast, and we need to be loud.
​​​​
CALL CONGRESS NOW:
​
​
​
​SCRIPT​
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY].
​
I’m calling to urge [SENATOR] to oppose any appropriations bill for the Department of Homeland Security unless it:
​
Rejects increased funding for ICE or Border Patrol​
​
Restricts ICE and Border Patrol's ability to conduct dragnet arrest operations
​
Ends Border Patrol deployments to our cities
​
Limits DHS's reprogramming and transfer authority
​
This lawless agency has been violently attacking and killing immigrants and citizens around the country.
​
Thank you for your time and consideration.

The attacks on immigrants, trans people, and our civil liberties won’t wait, and neither can we. It’s time to come together, build power, and start 2026 with action.
On Tuesday, January 27 at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT, ACLU People Power is hosting our first national Action Call of the year. This is our rallying point for volunteers, organizers, and supporters ready to step into concrete action.
​
Sign up now and prepare to hear directly from organizers about how People Power is building capacity for the year, where campaigns are taking shape, and what it means to move from caring about our rights to actively defending them alongside others.
If you’re looking for a sustained, collective organizing space, this call is for you. Together, we’ll set the tone for the year and commit to organizing through monthly calls going forward.
WHAT: ACLU’s January People Power Action Call
WHEN: Tuesday, January 27th at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT

Power doesn’t appear on its own. It’s built by people who organize consistently, in community, over time. Let’s build our power together.
In Solidarity,
ACLU People Power
