Thank you @ivey.house.gov, @vanhollen.senate.gov, & Alsobrooks.senate.gov, for trying to gain some control over ICE activities in our state. Our senators and representatives were turned away by ICE at their Baltimore facility where they deny holding detainees.

Today we were denied entry to an ICE facility in Baltimore where were exercising our oversight role as Members of Congress. The law is clear: ICE is REQUIRED to let us into these facilities.
They just don't want the American people to see what's happening behind closed doors.

This morning, my MD Delegation colleagues & I were denied entry to the Baltimore Detention Facility. Let that sink in. If our constituents are being held in potentially inhumane conditions, we have a duty & a RIGHT to check on them.

I joined Team Maryland in conducting oversight on the ICE facility in Baltimore.
We were denied entry.
The fear we are all feeling will pass, but the shame that our country will carry as a result of this conduct, will last generations.

Aha. I was figuring something like this would have to be happening. Big business cannot function in an atmosphere of chaos and extreme, irrational and arbitrary economic policies. If only that applied to policies on immigration, health care and so much else.
NEW: The CEOs of three of the nation's biggest retailers — Walmart, Target and Home Depot — privately warned Trump this week that his tariffs could disrupt supply chains, raise prices and empty shelves, according to sources familiar with the meeting.
