Target: U.S. Congress, Department of Justice, and the President of the United States
Goal: We call on Congress and the Department of Justice to immediately investigate and halt the politically motivated use of federal law enforcement and military forces in American cities, restore local control over policing, and protect our constitutional righ
In recent months, federal agents and military forces have been deployed in Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., often coinciding with key political events and announcements by local leaders. These actions have included:
- Border Patrol raids near public events held by state officials, seemingly intended to intimidate and disrupt democratic processes.
- Deployment of National Guard troops and federal agents in city streets, with armored vehicles and military gear, under the pretext of addressing crime—despite evidence showing crime rates are down.
- Federal agencies assuming local law enforcement duties, undermining Home Rule and confusing residents about the roles and responsibilities of different police forces.
- Targeted immigration raids that violate court orders and result in tragic consequences for community members.
Experts and local officials warn that these actions are not only unlawful and unconstitutional, but also erode public trust, increase fear, and politicize law enforcement. The militarization of our cities and the use of federal power to interfere in local affairs represent a grave threat to American democracy and civil rights.
We demand immediate action to restore democratic norms, protect local autonomy, and ensure that federal law enforcement is not used as a tool of political intimidation.
Key Demands
- Immediately halt all politically motivated federal raids and troop deployments in American cities.
- Launch a Congressional investigation into the use of federal law enforcement and military forces for political purposes.
- Restore full local control over city police departments and end federal takeovers of local law enforcement.
- Enforce and strengthen court orders prohibiting racial, linguistic, or location-based targeting in immigration enforcement.
- Hold federal officials accountable for actions that violate constitutional limits and civil rights.
- Establish clear guidelines and oversight to prevent future politicization of federal law enforcement.
