James,
Bernie’s amendment to claw back $75 BILLION from ICE and reinvest it in
health care, protecting Medicaid for hundreds of thousands of people who
could otherwise lose coverage, just fell short by only TWO votes. And
several Republicans crossed party lines to support it.
That’s not failure. That’s a breakthrough. It shows the political ground
is shifting – and that sustained public pressure works.
[ [link removed] ]Bernie tweet about his amendment to repeal ICE's $75 billion funding
increase and reverse cuts to Medicaid won the support of every Senate
Democrat and two Republicans
[ [link removed] ]We can’t stop now, so together let’s turn this momentum into a win.
Will you add your name right now to stand with Bernie and demand Congress
reverse ICE’s massive funding hike and put that money where it belongs:
healthcare?

Under Trump, ICE’s budget has exploded – pouring billions into raids,
family separations, and private, for-profit detention centers. To cover
the cost, Republicans pushed through the largest Medicaid cuts in U.S.
history last year.
The result? ICE is given a blank check to terrorize our communities and
enrich billionaires behind the deportation machine - like GEO Group and
Core Civic. All while patients skip doctor visits, ration insulin, and
flood emergency rooms because they have nowhere else to go.
Bernie’s amendment would have undone the reckless $75 billion ICE giveaway
buried in Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” and redirected those
funds to Medicaid instead.
Even though it didn’t pass, the message from Congress was unmistakable:
the firewall protecting ICE’s budget is cracking. Now we have to apply the
pressure that finishes the job.
[ [link removed] ]Add your name today to tell Congress: Repeal the $75 billion ICE
funding surge. Invest in health care for the people – now.
ALL our voices will be delivered directly straight to Congress to show
just how many people are watching, organizing, and refusing to accept a
system that funds cruelty while denying care.
When we organize, we win,
Our Revolution
