This incident is a shocking reminder that the Trump administration's deportation agenda has never been about public safety. State lawmakers must act to protect our communities from violent ICE operations that undermine public safety, separate families, and spread chaos in our communities.

While Trump and Republicans inflict pain on people, Democrats’ most important job is to fight back.
