UMass Amherst, Drop ICE! Sign the petition by May 1st!

March 26, 2026

Schools Drop ICE aims to get hundreds of colleges and universities to drop their contracts with ICE’s key corporate enablers: Enterprise, Hilton, Flock Safety, ICE Air Carriers, and Target.

UMass contracts with Enterprise Rent-A-Car, the primary provider of ICE’s vehicles. Sign the petition link below to tell UMass to end that relationship with ICE enablers and DROP ICE by May 1st!

From Schools Drop ICE:

Why target corporations? The fastest way to shrink ICE’s capacity is to cut off its private sector support. This Administration’s deportation machine depends on corporations for places to sleep, cars to drive, technology to track, planes to fly, and parking lots to stage. Colleges have real leverage over the companies providing these services.

When students and workers join together in action, we can force our schools to stop funding and normalizing ICE collaborators and take down the whole regime.”
