What To Do This Week: Get our money back from ICE!

[Derrick, People's Action]

Here's what you can do to stand up to their reign of violence and lies

Policy Practice 2008,   In 2025, Trump cut close to $1 TRILLION from our health care and food assistance, then used half of that money to hire the thousands of violent, masked ICE agents who are now terrorizing our communities and killing people.    This week, we’re making calls to Congress to tell them to get our money back from ICE!    Your calls are already having an impact. Last week, people across the U.S. called their senators, and together we stopped Congress from rubber-stamping huge new budgets for ICE and Border Patrol.    However, ICE was already sitting on huge piles of cash thanks to Trump’s Big Ugly Bill passed in 2025. Democrats need to demand that these funds be put back in Medicaid and SNAP.    They also must demand that Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller be fired.    We’ve got momentum. Let’s keep it up.   See below!   In solidarity,   Derrick Crowe People’s Action   P.S. Our local affiliate, TakeAction Minnesota, continues to organize to protect our neighbors and students in peaceful, nonviolent ways, and we invite you again to donate to support their crucial work on the ground. Tell Congress: Take back our funds from ICE! Trump cut close to one TRILLION dollars in health care and food assistance and used half of that money to hire the thousands of poorly trained ICE agents who are now terrorizing our communities and killing people. Democrats need to demand that these funds be taken back and given back to Medicaid and SNAP. They also must demand that Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller be fired.
