Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

Remote work enables a wider range of people to work- disabled folks, non-drivers, caregivers, etc.

Remote work also reduces the opportunities for predatory managers to sexually harass or assault people under them.
1) Telework increases the pool of talent, aids in recruitment & retention of state employees.

2) Telework increases road safety, reduces traffic congestion & addresses climate change.

3) Telework opens the possibility of transforming offices into much needed housing.

This time, it was a US citizen who ICE officers shot from behind after he warned them that children would soon gather for the bus where they had pulled over a vehicle.
