Right now, families held in indefinitely detention are facing imminent deportation by the Trump administration. ICE has the power to stop this, but only if we ramp up public pressure on them before this irreversible damage is done. TAKE ACTION: Call ICE to urge them to STOP the deportations of these children and their families. We have shown we CAN stop deportations, as some families have been released instead of deported. But others remain at imminent risk and we must continue to fight back during critical moments like this. Important note: We know these calls take time and can be challenging to navigate, and that ICE personnel may not answer, hang up, or otherwise deflect responsibility, but please know that this pressure helps — and we’ve proven time and time again that it gets ICE’s attention.
Hello, my name is [NAME]. I’m calling to urge ICE to stop the removal of the families in Dilley and Berks facing imminent deportation. These families came to the U.S. fleeing for their lives and must be allowed to pursue the right to seek asylum here in safety. The U.S. government is under the obligation not to return individuals to a situation in which they would be at risk of torture or other serious human rights abuses. I urge ICE to halt these deportations and release all families from detention, which it has ample discretion to do. Thank you.
