DHS under Secretary Noem can be quickly summed up: Impunity. Injustice. Slanderous propaganda. Violence. As out-of-control ICE and CBP agents kill with impunity in our communities, Kristi Noem has proven herself to be utterly unfit to lead the Department of Homeland Security and rein in this violence. Indeed, she’s often spurred it on. We will never get the accountability we deserve so long as Noem is leading DHS, which is why Congress must take matters into its own hands and push her out.

The Constitution guarantees American citizens and immigrants rights and liberties. We elect our leaders to uphold the Constitution and to protect our rights and freedoms; not to look away as federal agencies are given license to strip them away. Currently, ICE and BP officers are disappearing people off the streets and detaining them with no due process, they’re smashing car windows to gain access to people, requiring people to provide proof of citizenship on the spot, and killing people without cause. These actions are antithetical to our democracy, our security and our liberty. We elect our leaders to represent us, the American people, and our democracy not to uphold the extreme tactics of an administration. We need our leaders to fulfill their vows to the constitution. We need our leaders to step forward with courage to protect the people who voted for them and that pay their salaries. We need them to do so now before our precious democracy is lost.

Georgia is fourth highest in the nation for ICE arrests - and it is in no small part because of state and local law enforcement cooperation with ICE/DHS. The Georgia Department of Public Safety - under which the Georgia State Patrol falls - has a so-called 287(g) agreement to cooperate with ICE.

We will succeed in passing the Safe Communities Act (S.1681/H.2580) in the current 194th session at a time when it is most needed, given the militant excesses of NHS ICE agents.

 The murders of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, followed by attempts to cover-ups the crimes and obstruct all legal processes to bring the guilty to justice, the Trump regime is rapidly expanding its tyrannical, fascist control of our country and the destruction of our democracy and rule of law. Unless We the People, from whom government derives its just powers, don’t stop the regime soon, their control will be as extensive as it is in Russia and other right-wing authoritarian governments where any dissent is violently suppressed.

To protect the children. ICE is waiting outside schools to take brown, black and yellow children regardless of immigration status or citizenship. They are taking minors and using children to take parents.

Ignorance and avarice have corrupted every level of American society. The oligarchy, kleptocracy, and kakistocracy must be brought to heel. American workers will not tolerate the rule of war criminals, treasoners, and human traffickers.

The Sheriff's office is tasked with the security of courthouses in Philadelphia, including the Criminal Justice Center. Sheriff Bilal is allowing ICE to use the courthouse as a hunting ground to conduct violent warrantless arrests. Sheriff Bilal's inaction continues to put all Philadelphians in harm's way, as everyone's access to justice is jeopardized. The Sheriff has taken multiple opportunities to speak to the press about how dangerous ICE agents are, yet her deputy sheriffs continue to share information with ICE, harass community members observing ICE abductions, and allow ICE agents to stalk the courthouse hallways, hang out in the lobby, move freely through restricted area, use the private court-owned parking lot to violently abduct our neighbors, and assault bystanders for daring to film them. Sheriff Bilal does not hold her deputies accountable for collaborating with ICE agents — which is a violation of her office's current policy. All the while, she refuses to meet with No ICE Philly and community organizations about how she can keep our neighbors safe. Sheriff Bilal claims she can't take action, but we know the sheriff is not powerless. Join us in demanding Sheriff Bilal take action to keep ICE out of our courthouse, hold collaborating deputy sheriffs accountable, and protect our neighbors seeking access to justice.

This petition is not about political party, ideology, or allegiance—it is about humanity. It is about protecting children, families, and communities from fear, trauma, and injustice. Remaining silent while families suffer is not pro-life; true pro-life action defends life in every sense, including safety, dignity, and due process. By signing, you stand for what is right, not for a party or a platform. Together, we demand leadership that prioritizes the vulnerable, upholds moral responsibility, and acts with courage—because silence harms real people, and action can protect them.

An ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mom of three, in Minneapolis. It’s a disturbing, unnecessary tragedy, and our hearts go out to her family and loved ones. In response, the White House propaganda machine went on the offensive with falsehoods that directly contradict widely shared video footage of the murder, while Secretary of Homeland Security Noem attacked the victim and defended the shooting. They’re scrambling to tell you lies to distract you from the truth: They are building a world where federal agents can terrorize communities and murder a woman in broad daylight and face no consequences. If you’ve had enough of ICE’s lawless violence, it’s time to speak out: Defund ICE!

Guns are the number one cause of death for children and teens in our country. Every one of these deaths is preventable. States with stronger gun laws consistently have lower rates of gun deaths, because gun laws save lives.  Every person deserves the right to live free from gun violence. And, we know what works. Requiring background checks for all gun sales will prevent prohibited people from accessing deadly firearms. An extreme risk law would give every family the ability to ensure their loved ones cannot access guns during a serious crisis when they are at extreme risk of danger to themselves or others.   Finally, community violence intervention programs stop violence before it starts by using credible messengers to break the cycles of gun violence in our communities. We know what works. Now we need action.
