"No one is safe under Donald Trump" Congressmember @deliaramirezil discusses the incoming administration's mass deportation plans and threats to end birthright citizenship, which she calls "un-American, unconstitutional and undemocratic."

Mass deportation could mean detention camps, community raids, and forcing local police to become immigration agents. It goes far beyond current policy of focusing on public safety threats. America deserves better solutions.

The Laken Riley bill contains unconstitutional provisions that give more power to states like Texas on immigration. Before more people jump onto that bill they should take a closer look at what it actually does.

The Laken Riley Act isn’t about public safety — it's an attack on constitutional protections and a green light to Trump's mass deportation agenda. This bill is on its way to the Senate for a vote. Here's what you need to know to call your Rep. and urge them to VOTE NO ⤵️

Dems can support moving to debate on the bill, while also saying it has serious problems that need fixing. Fetterman and Gallego and a few others are undercutting the possibility of mounting a more united front that could fix its worst elements: newrepublic.com/article/190043…

The Laken Riley Act "would transfer a massive amount of power to state attorneys general and district court judges, who could effectively wrest control over immigration enforcement from the executive branch." bit.ly/3Wd2xK8
