Hi there —
Federal immigration agents raided 15 Zipps Sports Grill locations across the Phoenix area last week, arresting more than 35 workers.
This is the reality of Trump's immigration enforcement: workplace raids, mass arrests, families torn apart, and communities terrorized.
Senator Ruben Gallego warned this was coming. He told Arizonans that ICE isn't going after criminals — they're engaging in racial profiling to intimidate local populations. He warned that ICE isn't afraid to detain U.S. citizens for as long as they can.
Now we're seeing it play out across Arizona.
While Republicans push legislation to criminalize protesting ICE and defend lawless agents, Democrats are demanding accountability and standing with Arizona communities facing federal overreach.
All six Arizona Republican House members — Andy Biggs, Juan Ciscomani, Eli Crane, Paul Gosar, Abe Hamadeh, and David Schweikert — voted for the DHS funding bill that enables this enforcement. They're funding the raids, the arrests, and the intimidation — with no accountability.
Meanwhile, Senators Mark Kelly and Ruben Gallego are demanding training, oversight, and accountability.
This is the choice: Republicans who fund mass deportations, unidentified masked agents, and workplace raids, or Democrats who demand transparency and protections for Arizona communities.
Chip in $10, $25, or whatever you can today to support Arizona Democrats fighting back.
