I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

This mid-afternoon Alex Pretti vigil at the Portland VA was not heavily promoted. But the crowd probably stretches a quarter mile or more. Americans are galvanized and grieving.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Multiple people have already died at Camp East Montana, and the American people deserve answers from Kristi Noem and DHS.
Camp East Montana should be shut down.

There's a clear path forward:
1. Quickly pass the other 5 spending bills before the Friday night deadline & keep government open.
2. Separate out the DHS bill & work on common sense steps to rein in ICE and CBP.
Senate Democrats are ready to get it done. Republicans must join us.

Americans must be eyes wide open that blocking the DHS funding bill will not shut down ICE.
ICE is now sitting on a massive slush fund it can tap, whether or not we pass a funding bill.

Federal agents cannot murder people in broad daylight and face zero consequences.
I will NOT support the DHS bill as it stands.
The DHS bill needs to be split off from the larger funding package before the Senate—Republicans must work with us to do that.
I’ll keep fighting to rein in DHS and ICE.

Just showed up at the San Antonio immigration court. I’m here as an observer. People are coming here for their required appearances; people following the law.
It’s 8:15am and the place is already swarming with armed ICE officers, waiting to arrest peaceful, legal immigrants.

Voting by mail is safe, trackable, and encourages high turnout. Washington helped pioneer vote-by-mail, and our voters have used it to participate in our democracy for years. I hope this ruling will stop those who would undermine our elections or make it harder to vote.
