Inside The Billion-Dollar Business Of Deportation Flights The recent GOP spending bill will mean more money for ICE — and less transparency for the private airlines making billions on deportation flights.

Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights | Tell Your US Senators: Stop More Funding for Trump’s Deportation Agenda @icirr.bsky.social t.co/XwxiG7rVrb

Take action today, by writing & calling your member of Congress & telling them to oppose the power grab, and support a short-term clean funding bill @immigrantjustice.bsky.social @detentionwatchnetwork.org @unitedwedream.org t.co/wbJQYKJXjt

DC friends: it goes after DC independence. For us living in DC without representation, this bill tramples on DC autonomy & puts $1 billion of our funds at risk, which could force mass teacher layoffs t.co/vWzQkwXBbL

The bill would grant wide discretion to the Trump administration to shortchange a number of essential programs from veterans’ services to K-12 programs t.co/GwNGMBhjGO

Boosts to ICE detention & deportations: it would include a jump of nearly $500 million for ICE to give the agency a nearly $10 billion budget, enriching billionaires and private prison corporations that jail families and long-standing neighbors t.co/EunrSJ6Ae6

Journalists: it would trample the public’s right to know, media should be outraged - we would go dark, as most of the public reporting requirements that force DHS to publish data & records (such as contracts) would be wiped away americanimmigrationcouncil.org/sites/defaul...

The bill would cede power to Trump: it does not carry forward reporting requirements & directives, which means that Congress would essentially throw away its most pivotal tool to ensure checks over federal agencies at a time when it’s needed the most t.co/wOlmifQJly

In a dramatic shift, Schumer caved & said he'll support the GOP funding bill today that would hand over power to the executive branch, allowing for a dramatic power grab by the Trump administration t.co/mOJpyIflHe
