ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) raids are terrorizing immigrants across the United States. Federal agents are violating immigrants’ constitutional rights by arresting people without reasonable suspicion. Even though being here as an undocumented person is a civil violation and not a crime, federal agents are arresting undocumented people who have no criminal records. Trump’s mass deportation policies are also harming people with valid visas and U.S. citizens who are impacted by racial profiling, including people from Puerto Rico and people who are Indigenous to these lands, because they are brown. For example, some Native residents of Arizona and New Mexico have already reportedly been questioned or detained by federal immigration agents, so Tribal leaders are encouraging people to carry identification documentation and sharing Know Your Rights information for encounters with agents. The Trump administration has also challenged the constitutional right to birthright citizenship, including Native people’s citizenship -- ignoring the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and 100 years of case law in addition to the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924. The administration is emboldening federal agencies (including ICE, Customs & Border Patrol, and the FBI) to disregard laws and abuse power across the United States, which endangers all of our communities. Government officials around the country are joining organizations to challenge many of these actions in court. Now, members of Congress must also step up and do more to push back. They can refuse to fund immigration raids or detention centers, reject Trump nominees, vote no on xenophobic policies, conduct oversight visits of immigration detention centers, and speak out forcefully to pressure the Trump administration to walk back their illegal actions. But they need to hear from us. Click ‘START WRITING’ to send a message to your members of Congress: Act with urgency to protect our communities and stop Trump’s racist mass deportations.
