Join our Action Network campaign to tell Congress to reduce funding for ICE and CBP
Urge Congress to reduce funding for ICE and CBP, end automatic pipelines to deportation through the criminal legal system, and support comprehensive immigration reform that will reunite and keep all families together. The federal government wastes more than $25 billion each year on jailing, abusing and deporting immigrants. Instead, we must redirect federal tax dollars to community-based case management programs as well as health care, education, housing, infrastructure and programs that benefit all of us.
