Six things you can do this week:

1. Contact federal lawmakers and urge them to vote NO on the Department of Homeland Security budget that includes no significant changes or accountability for ICE. LINK: https://t.co/28i4h0YB88

5. Support the Western International High School students who were detained by ICE right here in Michigan, by donating to their fund. You can donate by Venmo to @peopleasassemblydetroit or by CashApp to $peoplesassembly.

I don’t remember there being a response like this for Philando Castile, or Daunte Wright, or Jamar Clark….

Can you guess what changed?

This is Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother who was murdered today by an ICE agent in Minneapolis.

My heart breaks for her family.

A full investigation must happen and the agent must be held accountable.

Congress must rein in this rogue agency.

Detroit community members deserve safety services that don't include increasing mass incarceration and police violence.

You know I'll be forever spicy but I'm taking a break from being a spice to answer the question of what happens when a B-list rapper runs for office. Come through @ZohranKMamdani if you want answers.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising.

Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.

I hope everyone reading this has taken time to sit and reflect on how much you've accomplished throughout your life. You should be proud, because whether the accomplishment is big or small it is still an accomplishment and it matters.

Keep going! 💪🏽😊

Did you know 1 in 4 Michiganders are enrolled in Medicaid. Republican tax cuts will GUT Medicaid for over 2.6 MILLION Michiganders. For those in rural areas, Medicaid is especially important to providing life saving coverage and keeping healthcare providers open. We must do more at the state level to combat this.
