Choose Love, Not ICE.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) cruelty is threatening our religious calling to love our neighbors — in our houses of worship and in our communities. This cruelty is part of a larger effort to deceive Americans about the trustworthiness of election systems, disrupt the operation of those systems, and use the ensuing chaos to deny unfavorable election outcomes. The federal government has created conditions for voter intimidation through its deployment of federal law enforcement and rhetoric about deploying ICE agents at or near polling locations. Further, ICE has crushed peaceful dissent and assembly by using and threatening violence.

As faithful Americans, and as an expression of our values, we demand that the federal government stop the attacks on our neighbors and we call on our political and religious leaders to stand in solidarity against their cruelty.
