Not another dime for ICE. Not while hundreds of detained immigrants across the country are on hunger strikes over inhumane conditions. Not while families and communities are being torn apart. Not while children are being held in detention facilities described as "trailer prisons."

"Enough is enough. Delaney Hall should be closed." At today’s House Committee on Homeland Security hearing, Rep. @benniethompson.bsky.social called out DHS for defending a detention system where people have reported abuse, neglect, and inhumane treatment.

"President Trump and Stephen Miller built up a paramilitary force and essentially promised it immunity and set it loose on some of our American communities." During today's Senate appropriations hearing, @murray.senate.gov called out the Trump administration's abuse of power at DHS.

Being treated with dignity and respect doesn't stop at detention center doors, we must stand with the detainees at Delaney Hall and detention centers across the country.

“Inhumane,” that’s how @repespaillat.bsky.social described the conditions inside Delaney Hall after accessing the facility.

Deborah Fleischaker explains why pouring billions more into ICE and CBP won’t fix our immigration system: “Before Congress writes another blank check, lawmakers should ask a basic question: what problem are they actually solving?”

“The more successful ICE agents and administration officials are in reducing the U.S. labor supply, the worse the economic results for Americans,” said Stuart Anderson on the real economic costs of this administration’s mass deportation policies.

“Congress should direct money to urgent needs, not to unsafe and lawless immigration enforcement.” - Greg Chen, Senior Director of Government Relations for @aila.org.

As Greg Chen of @aila.org warns, ICE has ignored court orders, harmed U.S. citizens, and agents continue to operate without accountability. Mass deportation doesn’t make us safer. It fuels chaos, abuse, and fear.

“Will you color a paper doll with me?” – @msrachelforlittles.bsky.social One paper doll = one message that kids in detention deserve freedom. How to join: ➡️ Template: bit.ly/freefamilies... 🎨 Post your doll and use #FreeFamilies 📢 Tag your members of Congress and tell them to end family detention.

Congress already handed DHS $191 BILLION. Now Trump and Stephen Miller want $70 billion MORE for mass deportation with no oversight, no reform, and no respect for due process. This isn’t safety. It’s cruelty with a price tag. Congress must say no. Learn more: americasvoice.org/press_releas...

"If people come seeking refuge, we should make that refuge real." ICYMI, @afsc-org.bsky.social held a vigil to honor immigrant mothers who are detained at the Aurora ICE facility. 🎥: (@) 9newsdenver on IG

🎥 From fear to resilience, Cecilia makes it clear that immigrant communities aren’t backing down. “And this fight is not only for Venezuelans, it is for all the TPS holders and immigrant community who deserve more than temporary protections” #ProtectTPS

Earlier this week during our virtual press event, @irap.bsky.social's Staff Attorney Megan Hauptman didn't mince words: "From refugees to DACA recipients to TPS holders, the government doesn't care about legal status or humanity. Everyone is a target."

"This congresista will keep fighting for Dreamers and TPS holders" Rep. @ramirez.house.gov makes it personal. This fight is for her family and for millions of families like hers.

“Our story is not unique.” Cecilia Gonzalez's story reflects millions: TPS holders are workers, students, and small business owners contributing billions to the economy and strengthening communities every day. #ProtectTPS

"Ending TPS would be the largest de-documentation effort in US history, but the administration won't stop there if the court gives them the green light to run roughshod over our laws," said Megan Hauptman, @irap.bsky.social Staff Attorney. Watch her full remarks ⬇️

This administration isn’t just targeting undocumented immigrants. Rep. @ramirez.house.gov highlights the pattern, "they're also attacking every single program providing protective status and relief from deportation for immigrants, including Temporary Protective Status (TPS) and DACA."

Kids are paying the price for this administration’s mass deportation agenda.

#TaxDay is a reminder: our money reflects our values. But right now, it’s being spent on mass deportation instead of the essential services our communities need. We deserve better. Tell Congress to stop funding cruelty.

“Don’t feel fear. Feel proud.” In a moment when so many Latino communities feel targeted, Karol G used her Coachella stage to remind us of the true power of resilience over fear.

Family separation hasn’t gone away. It’s still festering at a crisis level. We’re grateful for the leadership of the @hispaniccaucus.bsky.social and Chair @repespaillat.bsky.social in the fight to protect immigrant families and end family separation.

Losing birthright citizenship isn't abstract, it's personal. As Chanea Davis of @wearecasa.bsky.social says, “I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for birthright citizenship.” Let’s protect the right every American-born child deserves.

“Without us, there’s no United States.” - Diego Bartesagi, @maketheroadnj.bsky.social A reminder that the promise of America is only real when it includes everyone. 🇺🇸

For more than 150 years, birthright citizenship has been a cornerstone of equal protection under our Constitution. As Janet Murguía, President and CEO of @weareunidosus.bsky.social, explains, “this right really is about belonging and the importance of citizenship and equality”

Nearly 4,000 children arrested. 11,000 parents of U.S. citizen kids detained. This is not normal. And as @repespaillat.bsky.social puts it: “This is a major crisis in America for children and families.”

If you’re born in the United States, you are a citizen. As @attorneymartinez.bsky.social puts it, the 14th Amendment isn’t up for debate.

Born in the U.S.A = Citizen!

During Rep. @jayapal.house.gov’s shadow hearing last week, Manny shares the fear so many U.S. citizen children are living with: “I’m scared when my parents leave the house in the morning for work. I don’t know if I’ll be able to see them again or if I’ll be able to hug them again.”

Rep. @jayapal.house.gov: “Children as young as four and five years old… left to defend themselves… against a government attorney.” Kids belong in classrooms and playgrounds. not in courtrooms fighting for their future alone.

“[Trump]’s cruelly ripping apart families, detaining people of all statuses.” - Rep. @jayapal.house.gov This isn’t about public safety it’s about cruelty as policy. As Rep. Jayapal highlights, children are being left behind, detained, or forced to navigate our broken immigration system alone.
