ICE constraints in funding bill MUST include NO ICE or other Feds near polling places! [View all]

Not DEMANDING that would be utterly incompetent by the Democrats! It's probably the main thing we need to do to save democracy! Let's face it: the upcoming disruptions/corruption of the elections by ICE and the other Feds is the bottom line point behind the brutal immigration crackdown. They want Feds in Blue precincts in key races to scare voters away, close and disrupt polling places, etc., to steal the election. THAT'S how they will try to do it, and we MUST prevent that!
