Stop ICE From Monitoring Online Criticism and Threatening Free Speech

The recent move by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to monitor online social media discussions, including negative or critical commentary about the agency and its top officials, poses a grave threat to free speech. Under the guise of "protecting" ICE agents and facilities, this program threatens to stifle political dissent, especially in light of the Trump administration's hostility toward immigrants and its ongoing attacks on the First Amendment. Simply criticizing ICE online should not be treated as a threat.

Sign the petition to demand that ICE immediately halt its program to monitor, track, and profile online discussions that criticize or oppose the agency.

Documents reveal a disturbing plan by ICE to target social media users based on their sentiments toward the agency, including tracking "negative references" to ICE on social platforms. The program isn't just designed to catch direct threats of violence – it would also involve the surveillance of ordinary citizens simply expressing their discontent with ICE's policies and actions. 

In an era where civil liberties are already under attack, especially under the Trump administration, this type of surveillance could lead to chilling effects on free speech and activism. This is not just about monitoring threats; it's about controlling and intimidating individuals who speak out against injustice.

Sign the petition to demand an immediate halt to ICE's surveillance program, and insist that the government stand up for the right to free speech and privacy for all citizens.
