Oppose a DHS Deal with ICE Funding
Official Daily Action for Wednesday, March 25th, 2026

(Adapted from 5calls)
Senate Republicans are organizing a deal to restart DHS funding via two separate bills:
– one to fund all DHS components except for ICE’s deportation operations
– one to pass ICE funding and the SAVE America Act

The major problems with this approach are:
• Incremental minor reforms to ICE and Border Patrol are inadequate.
• Using budget reconciliation to pass the SAVE America Act would almost certainly violate Senate parliamentary rules in addition to undermining voter rights.
• Remember: ICE already has a $75 billion slush fund created by the “Big Beautiful Bill”.

ACTION: Demand your Senators oppose any deal that maintains the status quo operations of these rogue agencies while attempting to sneak through a voter suppression bill.

Senator Patty Murray: 202-224-2621 / 206-553-5545
Senator Maria Cantwell: 202-224-3441 / 206-220-6400

SCRIPT:
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [city, zip code]. I’m calling to urge Senator [Murray/Cantwell] to oppose any DHS funding deal that includes funding for ICE and Border Patrol or includes any funding for the SAVE Act.
