The "Big Beautiful Bill" INCREASES ICE funding by 265%
More money for deportations. More ICE agents. More fear.
This administration thrives on distraction. They claim transparency, but what they’re hiding is even more alarming. While our attention is pulled in a dozen directions, our rights are being quietly stripped away.
The very representatives we hired to protect our freedoms are now eroding them. And too many of us haven’t kept a close enough eye on Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” as it slithers through Congress to the Senate.
We hoped the Senate would temper the cruelty coming out of the House - which slid by with one vote. We were wrong.
Instead, the Senate’s GOP is trying to cut even deeper: slashing Medicaid, SNAP, and Social Security while handing the Department of Homeland Security $155.2 billion. That includes $8 billion for hiring more ICE agents and $14 billion for mass deportation operations. Hidden in the plan? Ridiculous asylum fees just to fill out an application to stay here.
This same administration touted DOGE as a fraud watchdog, but they’ve shown no meaningful results, just vague claims and bloated budgets. In reality, the waste and fraud are coming from DOGE itself.
We’re told we “have to” gut vital programs while billions are funneled into deporting people, many with no criminal record, while criminals in power are pardoned and promoted.
People have taken to the streets - peacefully and passionately, to protest. But now even our right to protest is threatened as military force looms ominously over our communities.
Despite growing rallies, waves of calls, and countless letters, our representatives still aren't listening. THAT ENDS NOW!
It’s time we remind them who signs their paychecks.
We will not sit idly by while our neighbors disappear into the shadows, denied due process. We refuse to normalize cruelty. We won’t tolerate this administration’s contempt - for the people or the law.
Mr. Trump—if you want to be loved, do something we can actually love you for!
Here’s what we can do: Legislators and media may look away, but we won’t. From defunding Meals on Wheels to gutting kids’ cancer research - this destruction must end.
Stay sharp. Stay loud. Stay involved. We have to continue our resistance with our eyes wide open!
