  1. Tell your Members of Congress: Stop the ICE terror machine<\/strong>.<\/a> Congress is scrambling to pass a DHS funding bill by Friday, and we need to make it loud and clear that our senators and representatives must oppose any bill that hands ICE and Border Patrol more funding or fails to include strict safeguards to protect our communities. Use the link above to email your Members of Congress, then be sure to call your senators<\/a> during business hours.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Join this week\u2019s virtual training to learn practical, actionable lessons on organizing against authoritarianism from Minnesota\u2019s resistance against ICE and CBP.<\/strong><\/a> Organizers in Minnesota have transformed crisis into action and tragedy into solidarity. On Thursday, Feb 12 at 7pm ET, those organizers and MN leaders including Rep. Ilhan Omar will share what they\u2019ve learned so we can all be better prepared to organize amidst crises and protect our neighbors from ICE and Border Patrol deployments.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Call your representative and tell them to oppose new voter suppression legislation modeled on the infamous SAVE Act.<\/strong><\/a> Last Congress, we helped defeat the SAVE Act, one of the worst voter suppression bills in a half century. Now, a series of bills with the same impact (ending registration by mail, adding new ID requirements that could prevent millions of eligible voters from registering) could get a vote in the House this week. Make sure your rep hears from you before the vote. (More info here<\/a>.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    P.S. The announcement of our first slate of endorsees means Indivisible\u2019s 2026 election work is officially underway. We need your help building a better Democratic Party during the primaries and then organizing toward a historic wave in the midterms. If you can, chip in to help power our election ground game here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    UPDATE: DHS funding deadline<\/strong>s<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    \u200b\u200bDepartment of Homeland Security funding runs out on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Democrats have pledged to withhold their votes from any funding bill that fails to include significant restrictions<\/a> on ICE and Border Patrol. Despite Americans being killed in the streets, Republican leaders don\u2019t seem ready to pass anything to address ICE and CBP terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Four things could happen this week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Dems cave fully and pass a bill that doesn\u2019t do much to rein in ICE and CBP;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Dems cave partially and agree to another temporary funding bill;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Republicans cave and we win;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. There\u2019s no agreement, and there\u2019s a partial government shutdown.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Despite Republican posturing, the politics are on our side. The vast majority of Americans think ICE\u2019s actions have gone way too far. Republicans are obviously feeling the heat — that\u2019s why they’re willing to negotiate at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Our job: Keep up the pressure on both parties. Republicans need to agree to rein in ICE. Dems must not agree to anything that falls short — including another continuing resolution that would kick the funding battle down the road and continue the untenable status quo of deadly ICE\/CBP violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Call your senators.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Call your representative.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Email all your Members of Congress.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Dems are doing the right thing, for now. So the ball’s in the Republicans\u2019 court. If there\u2019s a partial government shutdown this weekend, it\u2019ll be for one reason: because Republicans refused to do the bare minimum to protect Americans from a lawless, masked paramilitary force. And we\u2019ll make sure their constituents know it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
