Dear Friend,

Across the country, we are watching in horror as moms are torn away from
their babies and kids. [ [link removed] ] [ [link removed] ] [ [link removed] ] Just last week, a prominent and beloved
union president - a U.S. citizen - was injured and detained by ICE agents.
[ [link removed] ] And many members of Congress have been denied entry into ICE
facilities in California, New Jersey, and New York, despite their
Congressional oversight responsibilities. [ [link removed] ] Cruelty and intimidation has
become the defining factor in Trump’s administration. 

[1]SIGN NOW: Tell Congress to say NO to cruelty, human rights abuses, and
military interventions in our communities paid by cuts to Medicaid and
other programs for families!

As a growing chorus of everyday people have stood up to say “enough” to
this cruelty to our immigrant neighbors and family members, the Trump
administration has turned our government into a weapon against our people,
deploying National Guard troops and Marines to Los Angeles this weekend,
in defiance of the law and over the objections of the Governor of
California and the Mayor of Los Angeles. [ [link removed] ] To be clear, when people from
Los Angeles to Massachusetts–and places in between– peacefully stand up
for their immigrant friends and neighbors to receive due process and be
treated fairly, it’s democracy – not a rebellion that justifies military
intervention in any way.

Our immigration system is broken and we need Congress to step up with a
plan to fix our system, not exploit it. 

[2]Sign NOW to tell the U.S. Congress to say NO to cutting our healthcare
in order to fund separating families, human rights abuses, terrifying
hardworking immigrants, and illegal military interventions in our
communities!.  

What’s happening? The Trump administration and Republicans in Congress are
proposing $880 billion in extreme cuts to healthcare programs like
Medicaid in order to give tax breaks to the wealthy and to pay for a
massive increase in funding to carry out harmful and cruel immigration
practices, including family separation. 

Los Angeles is an alarming preview of what is to come if Congress passes
the Big Bad Betrayal budget bill that’s currently being considered by the
U.S. Senate. This bill will make extreme cuts to Medicaid and other vital
programs in order to pay for even more family separation, human rights
abuses, and terrifying hardworking immigrants - people essential to our
care workforce, our economy, and our future.

Our nation needs a safe and orderly immigration process that balances
compassion and security, NOT cuts to healthcare, NOT funds for even more
cruelty, and NOT military intervention in our communities.

[3]SIGN NOW: Tell Congress to say NO to a Senate Big Bad Betrayal budget
bill that will make extreme cuts to Medicaid to pay for tax breaks for
billionaires and separating families and human rights abuses!

Thank you for your work on behalf of America’s families and our democracy!

Together we are powerful!
