John, It’s Summer.
I want you to hear this directly from me. This weekend, I joined hundreds
of neighbors in Pittsburgh — in the snow — to march to the building that
houses ICE offices in our city.
Neighbors showing up for neighbors. Families braving the cold together. A
community making it clear that NO ONE here stands alone. Because when our
neighbors are being terrorized — we refuse to look away.
If we want to protect our people, we have to invest in the fight ahead.
That’s why I’m asking you personally today: [ [link removed] ]Will you click here and
chip in $10, $25, or whatever you can right now to help us keep
organizing, protesting, and holding ICE accountable at every turn?
When I stood outside that ICE building with my constituents, I was
thinking about the same thing I thought when I went straight to ICE
headquarters in D.C. to demand Kristi Noem’s firing:
You can’t reform oppression. You can’t reform hatred. You have to abolish
it. You have to extinguish it wherever it exists. And that work takes all
of us.
ICE has been completely out of control. They’re operating with impunity.
They’re kidnapping our neighbors. They’re harming our loved ones. They’re
instilling fear in entire communities.
Some people think — as long as it’s happening somewhere else, it’s not our
problem. But if they can do it in Minneapolis… if they can do it in
Chicago… they will do it anywhere. It’s only a matter of time.
That’s why Pittsburgh showed up. Families. Students. Elders. Organizers.
Faith leaders.
People who said:
We will protect our neighbors.
We will stand in solidarity with immigrant communities.
We will not consent to this fear.
I met parents who are organizing to walk kids to school so they feel safe.
Community members ready to escort neighbors to hospitals so they aren’t
afraid to get care.
That’s what solidarity looks like.
That’s what love looks like in action.
And that’s what this movement needs more of.
[ [link removed] ]If you’re ready to get in this fight with me, please consider chipping
in today. Whether it’s $5 or $50, your support helps us mobilize faster,
organize deeper, and fight harder against this unjust system.
John, people came to this country — whether generations ago or
recently — believing it was the land of the free.
A place where you could go to school…Go to worship…Go home at
night…Without fear of being disappeared or forced to show your papers. And
we all know right now that dream is under threat.
So we have a choice: We can stay in fear. Or we can channel that fear into
protection. Into solidarity. Into action.
Y’all know I’m choosing action.
I stood outside ICE’s doors in Pittsburgh and in DC and I’ll keep showing
up wherever this fight takes us. But I can’t do it alone.
This is one of those moments that will define who we are as a community.
Whether we stay silent, or whether we stand up for our neighbors when it
matters most.
[ [link removed] ]If you’re ready to stand with us, chip in now to power this movement
and help us hold ICE, and everyone complicit in this system, accountable.
In solidarity,
Summer
