"People who have been here for decades, who are pillars of their community, will be rounded up, placed in detention, and then deported, sometimes to their deaths. Families will be broken apart. People who have committed no crime beyond crossing into the wrong country will end up in an “Alcatraz” like facility as if they are hardened violent criminals.

Then there’s all the harm done through spending money on ICE enforcement rather than on anything socially worthwhile. With the money Trump is giving to ICE—more than $45 billion for “detention facilities” alone—we could end homelessness in America, a project that’s estimated to cost anywhere from $11 billion to $30 billion. In other words, we are choosing to have a homelessness crisis so that we can deport your neighbors. This is how warped the administration’s priorities are!"
