Tell Congress: Fight Extrajudicial Detentions and Deportations

Tell Congress: Fight Extrajudicial Detentions and Deportations

A country where the government can just snatch people off the street and lock them away for no good reason, never to be seen again, is not a democracy. If the Trump regime gets away with what it is doing to immigrants like these, there would be nothing to stop them from disappearing anyone they don’t like.

Public Citizen is calling on every member of Congress to speak out against this profound injustice and for Congress as a whole to do everything in its power — including holding emergency hearings, conducting investigations, issuing subpoenas, and withholding funding to the administration — at this defining moment for our nation.

Take action today even if you’ve taken action before. For the sake of those abducted by the Trump regime — and to preserve our very existence as a democracy — we must keep the pressure up day in and day out.


To Congress

The Trump administration’s extrajudicial detentions and deportations are a threat to our nation’s founding ideal of due process and to our very existence as a democracy rather than a dictatorship. Every member of Congress with a conscience and a commitment to the rule of law must speak out now. And Congress as a whole must do everything in its power — including holding emergency hearings, conducting investigations, issuing subpoenas, and withholding funding to the administration — at this defining moment for our nation.
