It's ironic that Trump's talking about ending wars while also bringing our country to the brink of a war that the American people do not want.

Stop ICE's Attack On Our Communities We can't wait around while ICE harms more people. Congress must demand an end to reckless and violent immigration raids and refuse any more blank checks to ICE or Border Patrol.

Congress must act now to ensure that all our communities are safe from the violence and abuse of these federal agents.

Tell your members of Congress to rein in ICE and stop the chaos in our communities immediately.

Stop ICE's Attack On Our Communities An ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. This news is devastating. ICE must immediately withdraw its 2,000 agents from Minnesota and Congress must block any new funding to immigration enforcement.

We can’t afford to wait as federal agents terrorize us with impunity.

Congress must rein in ICE’s lawless abuses now.

MAGA Rs are afraid of women at the ballot box. To sidestep the 19th Amendment, they’re backing the SAVE America Act to restrict registration, require documents many women lack, & purge voters from the rolls. They fear our strength & turnout. We won’t be silenced. Call 202-224-3121. #HandsOffHerVote

SAVE Act aka β€œshow your papers” law

If you don’t have a passport or access to your birth certificate, you’re not alone. About 21 mill Americans could be blocked from voting, just like you.

Why are Trump and Republicans pushing this? Because they do better when fewer people vote.

Another memorable ruling out of West Virginia, where Judge Goodwin β€” a Clinton appointee β€” excoriates the treatment of ICE detainees.

"This is not what civil enforcement looks like in a humane system of government under law."

I feel like the ultimate 2026 event would be a KPop + Reggaeton concert.

SUMMER 2028. That is TWO YEARS from now.

Imagine if we invested billions in asylum case processing instead of ICE terror.

They were working, productive members of the community with no criminal history. And now their children have no breadwinner in their families.

This morning I am reflecting this fact:

So many of the people my team and I are trying to help who have been detained by ICE are seeking legal asylum after fleeing instability or violence. 🧡 1/3

Michigan Senate wants tougher human trafficking penalties "Human trafficking is pervasive, and one of the most important ways we can combat it is to enact meaningful legislation," AG Dana Nessel said.

Human trafficking is pervasive, and one of the most important ways we can combat it is to enact meaningful legislation. I applaud the Senate for passing these reforms, and it is my hope they soon become law.

ICE deportation flights are getting longer and crueler A private equity–owned airline profits off Trump’s migrant crackdown.

This is an important read.

Read the stories of people who are shackled for 25-50 hours on deportation flights, some to countries they never lived in, some to war zones, others to countries they certainly are not safe in. #iceoutofourcommunities #momsky

Senator Chang's statement on ICE
YouTube video by Senator Stephanie Chang Senator Chang's statement on ICE

Michiganders, Minnesotans, and Americans are fed up.

They see families being ripped apart.

They see the danger that an unaccountable, out of control agency has put us in.

And they are demanding change.
It’s time for us to deliver.
