Stop Trump's militarization of LA!
Petition to Congress:
We urge you to call on the White House to remove military troops from Los Angeles and prevent further deployment of troops to the city.
Protests broke out in LA over the weekend in response to ICE raids across the city. ICE agents and local police responded with violence. Trump responded by militarizing LA and threatening to send even more armed forces into local communities.1
Trump sending Marines and the National Guard into Los Angeles against the objections of California elected leaders is a dangerous escalation to the violence carried out by ICE agents — and it’s an abuse of power. California is suing Trump for sending in troops because Trump’s power grab must be stopped.2
Sign the petition: Call on Congress to stop Trump’s extreme mass deportations, violence against Americans, and authoritarian regime. Stop Trump’s military takeover!
“BRING IN THE TROOPS!!!” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday.3 Calling in the military to a city where ICE agents and local police are already fueling the violence against protesters is unacceptable. These ICE raids and the violence against protesters must end.
Trump is making every attempt at grabbing absolute power. Defying court orders. Breaking the law to deport immigrants. Paying Big Tech companies to surveil our every move. And even sending the military to terrorize Los Angeles.
We need our elected leaders to make it clear to Trump that his disturbing, violent acts can’t continue.
Sign the petition: Stop Trump’s militarization of LA, mass deportations, and dangerous abuse of power.
