The tragedy in Minnesota comes as Congress faces a decision this week about whether to continue bankrolling the violence and chaos caused by ICE – an agency increasingly used as Trump’s personal army of terror.

If you’re feeling distraught, here are three concrete ways you can make a difference right now:

1. Call your senators today. tell them to vote NO on the Department of Homeland Security funding bill that keeps ICE operating with impunity.
2. Back candidates who are speaking out when others won’t. We’ve identified 10 candidates in key Senate and House races who have spoken out boldly against ICE, while many of their primary opponents have not. For example, in Maine the incumbent governor now running for U.S. Senate flew across the country for a fundraiser while ICE swept through her state.) Chip in $3 to thank candidates who chose courage over silence – and help them win.
3. Support Minnesota groups protecting families on the ground. We’ve identified three trusted organizations doing rapid response, mutual aid, and organizing right now: Unidos MN, Faith in Minnesota, and TakeAction MN. Donate $10 each to help keep families together and build the people-powered response needed to stop this violence.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
