Hi, I’m a constituent calling from [zip]. My name is ______.   

First, I’m calling because I’m horrified by what ICE is doing right now in Minneapolis. The violence, lawlessness, and unconstitutionality of their actions is appalling. Even worse is Congress’s failure to do anything about it. You’re a co-equal branch of government. Act like it! Rein this lawless agency in! ICE needs to be defunded and abolished, Kristi Noem needs to be impeached, and the officer who executed Renee Good needs to be arrested and charged. Americans don’t want this and we won’t accept it. Make it stop now!

Also Trump’s DOJ needs to drop its sham criminal investigation into Jerome Powell now, before they tank our economy. Trump is playing with fire — we will all lose if the Central Bank loses its independence. The DOJ must drop the charges now. Thanks.

A WCI BLAST Survey  email was sent Tuesday.
