$191B surge in immigration enforcement funding.
$75B for ICE alone -- enough for ~7 years.
Nearly $1T slashed from Medicaid.

That's why Faithful America joined dozens of organizations urging Congress to support H.R. 7346, the Drain ICE Act.

The Department of War has been hosting monthly Christian worship services in the Pentagon, and this month’s was led by Christian nationalist pastor, Doug Wilson. This man supports repealing women's right to vote, amongst other extreme views. His voice preaching to our leaders is highly alarming.

Savannah teacher killed in crash by man fleeing from ICE According to the Chatham County Police Department, Monday morning’s fatal crash was the result of a chase between Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and a suspect.

Linda Davis, a beloved Savannah teacher, was killed in a car crash by a man attempting to flee ICE agents.

Her death is yet another tragic and senseless loss as a result of encounters with ICE. ICE does not make us safer. #AbolishICE

Jesus overturned tables in the temple. The prophets disrupted worship that ignored suffering. Faith that does not confront injustice is not faith; it's idolatry.

We condemn the misuse of federal power against protesters, & we reject these attempts to weaponize the law to silence calls for justice.

The arrest of Black women leaders protesting ICE brutality, in the wake of the killing of Renee Good, is part of a long, shameful pattern of criminalizing protest while excusing violence carried out in the name of β€œlaw and order.” (2/3)

We are outraged by the FBI’s arrest of Nekima Levy Armstrong and Chauntyll Allen, and the targeting of community leaders for bearing prophetic witness.

This is not about β€œprotecting places of worship.” It is about protecting white supremacy and state violence from accountability. (1/3)

The horrific killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis confirmed what we already know: when a regime that values power over human life is allowed to operate without accountability, violence follows.

That is why it will take all of us coming together now to push back:

Fascism is here. The administration is sending MORE troops into Minneapolis, attempting to beat citizens into submission through fear and intimidation.

As Christians, we are called to step into the courageous leadership of Jesus in a time when the most vulnerable around us are being terrorized.
