This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make whatβs happening now look like childβs play. And people are disappearing.
Mr. Fetterman, it's really this simple: you're receiving $174,000 a year for a position to which you were elected after asking people to trust that you'd be an unwavering champion for working class families.
I don't give a fuck that you missed your beach trip. Stop whining and get back to work.
If you have a R senator, seriously call their office tomorrow & say vote against this bill. Say you donβt wanβt three times the budget of NASA going into a sprawling immigrant detention infrastructure. That you donβt want to kick folks you know off Medicaid.
