RAPID RESPONSE: Shut down the detention centers

Call, write, and visit your U.S. Senators and Representative to demand that ICE detention centers be shut down and no further funding for ICE and border patrol be allocated. The illegal denial of access to elected officials for oversight at Delaney Hall, a private for-profit mass detention center in Newark, NJ, is an alarming abuse of power. Growing reports of inhumane conditions imposed at these prisons on immigrants with no criminal records is unacceptable and requires they be closed.

Vote NO on the $71 billion for ICE and CBP in the reconciliation bill under consideration. Instead, allocate those funds to the basic needs of working-class and immigrant communities to benefit everyone.

Call 202-225-3121 today and ask for your U.S. Senators and Representative. Click here to send them a letter.

Then, fill in your info to send a short letter to your elected officials. And please share with your coworkers, friends, family, and neighbors.
