Niloofar –

The Midwest office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Chicago
recently announced intentions to host a Citizens Academy, a program
designed to teach and train residents from several states about the work
carried out by ICE against immigrants.

Invitees to the training were told that they would "participate in
scenario-based training and exercises conducted in a safe and positive
environment, including, but not limited to *defensive tactics, firearms
familiarization, and targeted arrests."*

Tell your representatives in Congress to block all funding for these ICE
training.

Over the past couple of years, we have seen how ICE agents work in Illinois
and other states – using racial profiling and militaristic actions to
separate families and destroy the lives of too many in our areas. We should
not be training residents on carrying out these enforcement tactics on our
immigrant neighbors.

In Illinois, we have taken measures to welcome immigrants and newcomers,
specifically rejecting the type of militarized enforcement advanced by the
Trump Administration. Illinois law keeps state and local law enforcement
from enforcing federal immigration law; average residents should not be
part of this enforcement.

We do not want this sort of unaccountable immigration enforcement in our
communities. ICE is promising to use Chicago as a "model" for the rest of
the country.

Help block this training from going forward.
