@SenFettermanPA is funding ICE executions. He's the ONLY Dem breaking ranks as agents kill Americans in Minneapolis.
To Senate Dems: Don't let his cowardice be our weakness.

This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHSβs arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.
Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is βunder review,β and canβt be shared.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.
Backing Kristi Noemβs impeachment is the bare minimum.

When Does Corporate Silence Backfire?
New Wharton research shows that staying quiet on polarizing issues isnβt always safe. Sometimes, silence can trigger a sharper backlash.
60 CEOs of Minnesota-based companies signed an open letter following the murder Alex Pretti.
Research from Wharton found companies that stay quiet may invite the very criticism they hoped to avoid.

ICE threw me and other protestors to the ground on Friday because we dared to stand up for our neighbors. Iβm okay, but our communities arenβt.
We can't afford apathy or inaction from our leaders right now. Abolishing ICE is a moral necessity.
