Parter Action: Text Bank for VA & CA Elections

 

This isn’t politics as usual. Republican leaders in Texas, and elsewhere, are attempting an unprecedented power grab to tilt the 2026 elections before a single vote is cast. Californians can’t sit it out.

We won’t unilaterally disarm. The Election Rigging Response Act (ERRA) is a legal, people-powered response that draws fair maps representing California’s diverse communities and protects our voice against partisan gerrymandering in other states. 

AND, there are important elections coming up in New Jersey and Virginia as well.

Partner Action: Support ICIRR's Policy Platform

We are currently in a moment unlike any other. Over the last few weeks, the Trump administration has been intentionally targeting the state of Illinois, using ICE agents to spread their repressive anti-immigrant agenda.

This increase in immigration enforcement activity has not made anyone safer, as agents have been escalating their violent tactics in an effort to harm as many people as they can, regardless of immigration status. We must call this what it is - state sanctioned violence.

Our lawmakers have a specific role to play in this fight against ICE’s terror. That’s why ICIRR is announcing its platform called S.A.L.T: Safety and Action for Liberation Together.

S.A.L.T includes a series of bills we’re asking our lawmakers to support, which would:

  • Bar civil arrests by ICE and other law enforcement agencies at our state’s courthouses

  • Provide guidance for all hospitals in Illinois to protect patients and their staff from potential law enforcement activity, including ICE actions while inside their hospital buildings

  • Close loopholes in our state’s TRUST Act that ICE could otherwise take advantage of

  • Expand the protections provided in the Safe Schools law to early childhood and higher education spaces

We are asking members of the General Assembly to support our S.A.L.T platform and keep our communities safe from immigration enforcement! 

👉  You can take action and make your voice heard by emailing your representative and urging them to stand against ICE’s violence by supporting S.A.L.T TODAY!
