Tell Congress:
Pass These Bills and Unmask ICE!
Win Without War

(July 25, 2025) — Masked agents are inflicting terror on immigrant communities across the country, detaining people without warrants, raiding workplaces, and separating parents in front of their children.

Under Trump, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) resembles a secret police force, often operating behind masks, in unmarked vehicles, and in plainclothes.

What we are witnessing isn’t merely an immigration enforcement scandal, it’s a full-scale assault on our values. Three bills in Congress seek to change that, Friend. The VISIBLE Act (S.2212), the No Anonymity in Immigration Enforcement Act (H.R.4004), and the No Secret Police Act (H.R.4176) would require immigration enforcement officers to clearly display identification and prohibit the use of face coverings during operations.

Unidentifiable agents abducting people from our streets is simply unacceptable. But we’re not powerless in the face of Trump’s mass deportation agenda. A key step toward accountability and shutting down these authoritarian tactics is unmasking ICE. That’s why we’re rallying support for these three crucial bills today, and we’re counting on you to speak out:

Tell Congress: No secret police in our streets!
Support and pass bills to unmask ICE.

Our job, now and always, is to defend communities facing violence and injustice. But we know ICE won’t back down unless they’re required to. Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons has publicly defended the use of masks to conceal his agents’ identities, and right now, Trump is preparing to supercharge his mass detention and deportation operation with 10,000 new ICE agents.

Concealing identities creates an unacceptable environment where ICE agents can operate with impunity. Reporting misconduct, seeking legal redress, or even verifying whether or not someone is a law enforcement officer becomes impossible as long as ICE agents remain unidentifiable.[1]

With not just one, but THREE legislative solutions on the table right now, there is motivation in Congress to hold ICE accountable and stop this abuse of power.

ICE’s secret police tactics represent yet another step in Trump’s descent toward authoritarianism. Failing to act now means allowing unidentifiable, masked agents in unmarked vehicles to become commonplace on our streets.

Will you urge your members of Congress to support and pass three bills to hold ICE accountable? Act now to help unmask ICE. 

Trump and Stephen Miller have shown their horrible vision: A weaponized immigration policy that uses the full force of the U.S. military to target non-citizens and their families as if they were enemy combatants. But even a president can’t do his worst if champions in Congress, movement partners, and people like us create roadblocks left and right — and that’s exactly what we’re set on doing.

Building a world where everyone can have dignity and thrive without the fear of violence won’t be easy, and it will take all of us.

Thank you for working for peace,
The Win Without War team
