Violence is escalating in our country. 

On Saturday, a federal immigration agent executed Alex Pretti, just weeks after the killing of Renee Good. And for months, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has terrorized families and communities across California and the United States.

Friend, we're in this fight because we care about the safety and rights of our fellow human beings. The climate justice movement and the migrant justice movement share a common cause—protecting families and communities by standing up against systems of greed and power that profit from exploitation.  

The killings and kidnappings carried out by ICE are part of a broader assault on democracy itself: where cruelty is normalized, rights are stripped away, and public institutions are weaponized against the most vulnerable. We are witnessing the brutalization of innocent people while the forces responsible for the devastation of communities continue to evade accountability and are empowered to commit even more violence. 

Thankfully, California Senators Padilla and Schiff are staunchly refusing to back any additional funding for ICE and the Department of Homeland Security. This is a great first step to standing up for our communities—but we need them to be leaders for their fellow senators in the movement for human rights.

Will you fill out our 1-minute form to thank Senators Padilla and Schiff for their courageous opposition and encourage them to lead in the fight for community justice?

These crises are connected, the harm is intentional, and our movements will not be divided. We stand in unwavering solidarity with the families and communities mourning and enduring brutality at the hands of our own federal government.

Thank you for being a part of this movement, for standing up for human rights, and for having the courage to stay resilient in the face of senseless tragedy.

We couldn't do this without you.
