July 8th, Demand Real Oversight of ICE; Arrests & Detention Conditions ICE arrests have now climbed to about 2,000 a day, described by a federal source as a new normal [Source: NBC News]. Here is what that looks like in Alabama:⁣ ⁣On June 30, Homeland Security Investigations detained more than 30 people at a Birmingham manufacturing plant, Scholar Craft, in an operation the agency says is still active [Source: ABC 33/40].⁣ ⁣Leonardo Garcia Venegas, a U.S. citizen from Robertsdale, was pulled from his car and handcuffed at a work site in May even while holding his REAL ID, and is now suing DHS. It was at least the third time agents detained him [Source: Institute for Justice].⁣ ⁣In Franklin County last November, at least 28 people were detained at checkpoints near a Pilgrim's Pride poultry plant outside Russellville. Advocates said some had valid work permits, plants closed early, and local school absences doubled ⁣ ⁣People are now held again at the Etowah County Detention Center in Gadsden, a facility with a decades-long documented record of inadequate medical care, poor food, and abuse. ICE itself stopped using it in 2022 over serious deficiencies, and it is now being brought back into ICE use as detention expands Hi, my name is [NAME], and I'm calling from [ZIP], [STATE].⁣ I'm concerned that ICE is now arresting about 2,000 people a day nationwide, sweeping up people who work and raise families here, and even U.S. citizens. ⁣ Last week agents detained more than 30 people at a Birmingham plant, and a citizen from Robertsdale was handcuffed even though he showed his REAL ID.⁣ I'm asking [Senator/Representative NAME] to demand real oversight of ICE, starting with a public accounting of how its funding is spent and an independent investigation of detention conditions, including the Etowah center in Gadsden.⁣ This is about due process and stopping the waste of our tax dollars on mistreating our neighbors. Please act now, and thank you for your time.⁣

Daily Action Call, Tuesday, June 30th, Please Read and Call Senator Hi, I’m a constituent calling from [zip]. My name is ______. First, please ask the Senator to vote yes on S. 4814, which would extend TPS for Haitians despite last week’s Supreme Court ruling. I’d like to see a similar bill for Syrian TPS recipients also. Sending these people back to their horribly dangerous countries right now is not an option. ⁣ I also strongly oppose giving Trump any more money towards defense or his war in Iran, whether it be by reconciliation or a supplemental bill. The total cost of the war is already estimated to be at least $132 billion. American taxpayers are bearing the cost— a new report says the average household has spent up to an additional $1,313 as a result. I don’t want one more penny of my money going to Iran, war in Venezuela, or on bombing anyone. I want it to go to Americans who are struggling. Vote no! Representative Hi, I’m a constituent calling from [zip]. My name is _______. First, I want the representative to stand up for disability rights and support a resolution to reaffirm the promise of the Olmstead Supreme Court ruling. Millions of Americans depend on those protections to live independently in their communities, and Congress shouldn't allow the Trump administration to reverse nearly three decades of progress.

OMB NEW RULE TO TAKE AFFECT OCTOBER 1 On May 29, the White House Office of Management and Budget, or OMB, proposed a rule to rewrite how every federal research grant is awarded, managed, and cancelled. scientific peer review would be advisory only, require political appointees to approve awards before any money goes out (they are neither qualified nor is the infrastructure in place to do this), let agencies cancel active grants at any time if a project no longer fits federal priorities. NIH is already screening grants for politics, using an algorithm that flags 235 disfavored terms after peer review and leaving hundreds of vetted top-ranking applications stuck in administrative limbo. Science reported that NSF cut hundreds of its core research programs by 20 to 30 percent to free money to funnel it in the tech sector, this is the cancel-and-redirect power this rule would make permanent. Take Action: Submit a Comment File a public comment opposing the rule. Under federal law, OMB has to read and respond to every substantive comment, so each one becomes part of the legal record that can slow or block the final rule before it takes effect. FASEB built a tool that makes this easy. It walks you through how the rule would affect you, points you to the relevant sections, and helps you draft your comment. It is built for scientists, but you do not have to be one to comment. Anyone who pays taxes has standing to comment, and this rule reaches well beyond our research labs.Make your comment count Write it in your own words, because OMB counts identical, copy-pasted comments as a single comment. name the specific section you are worried about, which is what makes a comment “substantive” and harder to dismiss. The list below gives you the sections to reference. Concerns you can raise • Politics over peer review. Political appointees could override the expert scientific review that decides which grants get funded, so a project’s fate turns on whether it fit

About 670,000 Alabamians rely on SNAP, including roughly 300,000 children. 👉🏻Starting this October, Alabama is on the hook for about $35 million a year in new administrative costs, and once a benefit penalty kicks in, the state’s share could run between $174 million and $261 million a year, depending on Alabama’s “error rate,” which is a clerical accuracy measure, not a fraud rate. 👉🏻 The state’s own SNAP director told Alabama’s human resources board the choices come down to pay the new cost, drive the error rate down, or end the program. 👉🏻The one place left to soften this financial blow to the state is the farm bill now in the Senate, where a bipartisan coalition that includes the National Governors Association has asked Congress to delay the cost-shift until 2030. 1️⃣Hi, my name is [NAME], and I’m calling from [ZIP], [ STATE]. I'm asking Senator Tuberville to vote to delay the SNAP cost-shift in the Senate farm bill. SNAP helps about 670,000 Alabamians buy groceries, including 300,000 children, and the new cost-shift could hand our state a bill of more than $170 million a year. 👉🏻The Senator voted for that cost-shift last year, and he sits on the Agriculture Committee writing this farm bill, so he's the right person to undo it. A bipartisan group of governors has already asked Congress to delay it. 👉🏻Senator Tuberville helped pass this cost onto Alabama, and now he can help fix it by voting for the delay. ⁣🗓️ Saturday, 6/27 4:45 Signs of Fascism 🔹Signs of Fascism event.

☎️Daily Action Call, Tuesday, June 23rd, OPPOSE the Save Our Bacon Act☎️ ⁣⁣📚Background 👉🏻The “Save Our Bacon Act” is a controversial provision included in the House-passed Farm Bill (H.R. 7567) that would roll back animal welfare protections by preventing states from enforcing many of their own livestock production standards. If enacted, it would prevent states from adopting or enforcing laws that protect farm animals from being raised in cruel conditions like extreme confinement. 🔹This harmful provision would: 👉🏻Nullify voter-approved laws such as California’s Proposition 12 and Massachusetts’ Question 3, which require that certain animal products sold in those states come from livestock raised under minimum humane standards. 👉🏻Prevent other states from adopting similar protections in the future, even when approved by voters or state legislatures. Override states’ longstanding authority to determine what agricultural products may be sold within their borders. 👉🏻Its impact could also extend far beyond pork production. According to an analysis by Harvard Law School’s Animal Law & Policy Clinic, the provision could undermine more than 600 state agricultural laws, including regulations governing food safety, seafood labeling, and the spread of pests and diseases. 👉🏻As Congress finalizes the Farm Bill—the massive, multiyear legislative package that governs agricultural and food programs—lawmakers should reject the “Save Our Bacon Act” provision and preserve the authority of states to enact and enforce their own animal welfare protections. 1️⃣Hi, my name is [NAME], and I’m calling from [ZIP], Alabama. 👉🏻I'm calling to urge [REP/SEN NAME] to oppose the inclusion of the Save Our Bacon Act in the Farm Bill. This harmful provision will roll back crucial animal cruelty protections and undermine the ability of states and voters to establish their own animal welfare standards.

☎️Daily Action Call June 19th, Protect HUD’s Equal Access Rule☎️ The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Equal Access Rule ensures that everyone can access federally funded housing and homeless services without discrimination. Since 2016, it has required HUD-funded shelters to house people according to their gender identity, a policy that has been vital to the safety of transgender and gender-expansive communities.The Trump administration has proposed eliminating the Equal Access Rule and forcing HUD-funded providers to discriminate and deny access to services based on “biological sex.”By requiring dehumanizing documentation checks to “establish a person’s sex”, this proposal would intensify disparities, reduce trust in housing providers, and increase unsheltered homelessness, all of which places additional burdens on local communities and their budgets.Congress should demand that HUD preserve the Equal Access Rule and repeal this harmful proposal. 📝 Proposed rule changes to the federal register require a public comment period where anyone can express their opinion on a proposed rule change. You can comment on the “Equal Access to Housing in HUD Programs Revisions” here 👇🏼 https://www.federalregister.gov/.../equal-access-to... ❗️Your comments are PUBLIC so please do not disclose personal information.
