Trump and Republicans are using Trump’s war in Iran to distract from his failures and the Epstein files saga — and as an excuse to try to ram through increased funding for ICE’s cruelty.¹

Democrats are holding strong and rejecting this argument so far, but the GOP is turning up the pressure. Senate Democrats need to hear from constituents now. Can you join an upcoming Jews Against ICE phonebank to drive calls to key senators in the fight over ICE funding?

Democrats have been hearing from our people-powered movements and holding the line to block increased funding for ICE’s cruel agenda.

But now, we’re facing a new challenge.

Trump wants to seize more money from our kitchen tables to fund ICE’s abductions and killings of our neighbors. He wants to sacrifice collective safety to get billions for ICE to enact more violence in our communities.

It’s vital that Democrats continue to fight. We can’t let them cave to Trump’s brazen ploy.

That’s where Jews Against ICE phonebanks come in. Together, we’ll drive calls to senators that need to hear that constituents want them to stop funding ICE’s violence. Whether it's your first time or your tenth time phonebanking, all are welcome!

RSVP for a Jews Against ICE phonebank here.

In solidarity,

The Bend the Arc team

PS: Can’t join a phonebank but want to support this work? Your gift today will help fund more Jews Against ICE phonebanks as we urge Democrats to hold the line against increased funding for ICE’s cruelty.
