This a local Indivisible event!
Rein in ICE for Good Week of Calls Campaign
Suggested topics:
– Priority1: Call your Senators and urge them to vote “No” on the reconciliation bill H.R.7147 giving DHS, ICE and CBP more money. Tell them which programs you’d like to see your money go to.
– Priority2: Call Chuck Schumer’s office in DC (202) 224-6542, speak to him as the Democratic Minority Leader and demand he unify his party against the upcoming DHS funding bill H.R.7147. They will be voting on it this week.
– H.Res 996, articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem – follow up from last week. Call or email; ask “Why haven’t you cosponsored the impeachment of Kristi Noem, yet?” and let them know you would like a written response. Check if your Rep is on the list here: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-resolution/996/cosponsors
– Be sure to thank representatives who are cosponsors of H.Res.996!
– Demand enforcement of restrictions on DHS authority in states – Ask them “what ever happened to State’s rights?” if you have a Republican elected official. Request a written response.
