i spent about half an hour of my time today, in the underground lot of a walmart, talking to my house rep's staffer, then my state senator's legislative assistant. dems are worried about midterms and many don't want to take action on ICE+DHS until then. PUSH THEM NOW.
every single level of govt you can access - if you're ok talking on the phone, call them. push them for action now. what are they doing to abolish ICE? what are they doing to shut down detention ctrs/prevent them from being built? how are they divesting from private prison money? that's OUR money.
Feb 5, 2026 22:46the time to act is now. fuck the election. people are dying! remind them of this! call every day until you get a response. write your list of grievances and air them. push for an anti-iCE coalition w/other civil servants. tell them it'll be a popular stance. get loud everywhere.
