It is time to hold our elected representatives accountable for their actions. Seven House members – Reps. Henry Cuellar from Texas, Jared Golden from Maine, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez from Washington, Laura Gillen from New York, Don Davis from North Carolina, Tom Suozzi from New York, and Vicente Gonzalez from Texas – have failed to uphold the values and trust imbued in them by their constituents. These representatives have voted to fund and enable activities of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that, according to many, lead to unnecessary acts of violence and cruelty.

The decision to continue funding ICE in ways that perpetuate harm, despite clear opposition from their voter base, betrays the fundamental democratic principle that elected officials act as the voice of the people. A democracy only functions when those in office truthfully represent the opinions and needs of voters. In these uncertain times, we must ensure that our voices are heard loud and clear, and that the individuals who claim to champion our rights and policies are held to the highest ethical standards.

The constituents of these states are demanding the immediate resignation of these House members. Their actions do not align with the values of the people who placed them in office. By choosing to vote in support of policies contrary to the will of the people, they have lost the confidence required to effectively serve their roles.

We urge you to sign this petition to demand the resignation of these members. Let us remind all representatives that accountability is not optional and that their seats belong to the people. By signing this petition, you are standing up for democracy, transparency, and justice. It is imperative that our voices reach the halls of Congress, promoting leadership that reflects the values and priorities of each and every voter. Demand change now and help restore integrity to our democracy by signing this petition today.
